Patent CA-2508611-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BERLIN ROGER GLEN
IPC: A61K9/24
Filed: 2003-12-18
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a pharmaceutical composition and method for the treatment of rhinitis and cold-like symptoms which includes a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), a decongestant, and an antihistamine. It has been found that an NSAID enhances the activity of a decongestant and an anti-histamine, thus permitting a reduction in either or both in administration of separate dosage forms. The same enhancement can also occur with an anti-tussitive. Thus, the effective amount of the decongestant or the antihistamine or both is less than about 75 % of an amount present in an approved dose of the decongestant or the antihistamine, or both, relative to an amount of the NSAID corresponding to about 100% of the amount present in a normal strength dosage form of the NSAID.

Title: Veneer dryer
Inventor: ROOS GOTTFRIED
IPC: F26B13/06
Filed: 2004-08-11
Abstract: The problem with known veneer dryers is that the individual drying zones cannot be separated distinctly. The optimal process conditions, which change during the drying process, cannot therefore be adjusted as required, as this leads to short-circuit currents between the drying zones. The aim of the invention is to provide a veneer dryer, in which the drying parameters can be optimally adjusted zone by zone. To achieve this, the drying zones (2, 3, 4) are arranged one above the other on horizontal planes and are thus effectively separated from one another. The inventive dryer is used for the production of veneers.
