A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11896590B2) discloses a dosage form containing a therapeutically effective amount of 1-(3-(4(((1R, 3S, 5S)-adamantan-1-yl)(phenyl)methyl)propyl)-4-methylpiperazine (“AV1066”) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The purpose of this dosage form is to relieve or prevent pain in individuals experiencing pain-related conditions. The formulation specifically includes AV1066 in the (+) form while being substantially absent of the (-) form, ensuring its efficacy in pain management.

The patent further details the various applications of this dosage form, including the relief of nociceptive pain, visceral pain, neuropathic pain, and hyperalgesia. It specifies that the pain targeted could stem from conditions such as fractures, burns, obstructions, postherpetic pain, or trigeminal neuralgia. The dosage form can be administered orally, through inhalation, subcutaneously, or parenterally, with dosing frequencies ranging from once to three times a day. Additionally, the patent mentions the possibility of intermittent or continuous administration over a period of 1 to 4 weeks, with the therapeutically effective amount falling within the range of 5 mg/kg/day to 30 mg/kg/day. The patent also covers scenarios where the subject may have undergone or is currently undergoing other analgesic treatments, including NSAIDs, and the potential inclusion of a second analgesic in the formulation.
