Compare to Dr. Bihari's MS-naltrexone patent:

Note: Dose discrepancies & inclusion of nalmefene.

Dr. Bihari appears to have shared more of his clinical experiences

with this approach and may/likely represent/s a refinement of approach.

Medical discoveries/leads are increasingly appearing more often first

in patent databases (e.g. http://www.uspto.gov &

http://ep.espacenet.com ) than in peer reviewed medical journal

databases (e.g. http://pubmed.gov) perhaps because once it is widely

published it can threaten patentability; and unfortunately the patent

process can take years. Once the patent is finally published however

it becomes accessible to the public although the patent holder has

legal rights over its commercialization. {Note: I'm not a patent

lawyer & this is just my current understanding.}

Best Wishes to all, Josh
