| 摘要 |
The present invention provides opioid formulations suitable for long-term delivery to a subject. The formulation of the invention comprises an opioid or opioid derivative (e.g., morphine, hydromorphone, fentanyl or a fentanyl congener), and an aqueous solvent comprising a low molecular weight carboxyl ic acid (e.g., C2-4, C2-7). The invention thus provides for formulations comprising morphine, hydromorphone, fentanyl or fentanyl congeners in concentrations significantly in excess of conventional aqueous formulations, e.g., on the order about 2-fold to about 10,000-fold greater than convention al formulations, e.g., currently commercially available formulations.
