Dipyridamole and analogs thereof in preventing adhesion formation

摘要

Compositions and methods for prevention of adhesion formation, whereby an effective amount of at least one compound selected from dipyridamole and analogs thereof is administered as active agent for a period of time sufficient to permit tissue repair. The active agent is preferably administered in conjunction with a delivery vehicle (e.g., microcapsules, microspheres, lipid-based systems, viscous instillates and absorbable mechanical barriers) useful for maintaining local concentrations of the compound at an effective level.
