Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

In vivo

Nicardipine (100 mg/kg) produces a significant transient decrease in retinal blood flow in cats. Nicardipine (100 mg/kg) produces a significant increase in ONH blood flow despite a significant decrease of the mean arterial blood pressure in cats, which suggests that nicardipine could have a beneficial effect on ONH tissue. Nicardipine significantly reduces systolic pressure in the spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Nicardipine significantly reduces the thickness of the tunica media, the media: lumen ratio and increases the luminal area, primarily at the level of small pial arteries and of intracerebral arteries in the spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Nicardipine increases the number of neurones in the frontal cortex and in the occipital cortex of SHR and counters hyperplasia and hypertrophy of GFAP-immunoreactive astrocytes. Nicardipine increases the number of neurones in the CA1 field of the hippocampus and decreases the number and the size of astrocytes of the white matter and grey matter, respectively. Nicardipine (40 mg/kg twice daily for 8 weeks) reduces plaque area by 49.2% in cholesterol-fed rabbits. Nicardipine (40 mg/kg) reduces cholesterol accumulation in the aortic arch by 74.5% in cholesterol-fed rabbits. Nicardipine (5 mg/kg) combined with Nimodipine (80 mg/kg) and Flunarizine(80 mg/kg) results in a significant enhancement of the protective potency of either ethosuximide (50 mg/kg) or valproate (100 mg/kg) against clonic seizures in mice.
