Mixing cap and container system for improved delivery of perishable liquid mixtures

Abstract

System and compositions for preparing and delivering perishable liquid mixtures comprising at least one active ingredient. The system comprises vessels having novel barriers for segregating solvent liquids from active ingredients prior to preparation. Novel liquid mixtures having therapeutic properties are also disclosed.

1 . A system for preparing and dispensing perishable liquids comprising:
 a vessel having a container portion fitted with a removable cap,
 said container suitably adapted to contain a solvent liquid, and 
 said cap containing at least one active ingredient and having a soluble barrier to retain said active ingredient within said cap, 
   wherein at least one said active ingredient is GABA.   
     
     
         2 . The perishable liquid delivery system of  claim 1  further comprising a solvent liquid contained within the container portion, wherein the proportion of said active ingredient to said solvent liquid is between 5 mg/ml and 50 mg/ml. 
     
     
         3 . The perishable liquid delivery system of  claim 1  wherein said system further comprises a co-optimizer. 
     
     
         4 . The perishable liquid delivery system of  claim 3  wherein said co-optimizer is synergistic to the physiologic function of said active ingredient. 
     
     
         5 . The perishable liquid delivery system of  claim 1  wherein said container portion of said vessel contains a volume of solvent liquid in specific proportion to the amount of said active ingredient. 
     
     
         6 . The perishable liquid delivery system of  claim 5  wherein said vessel comprises a co-optimizer synergistic to the physiologic function of said active ingredient. 
     
     
         7 . The perishable liquid delivery system of  claim 1  wherein said active ingredient is in powder, liquid, or gel form. 
     
     
         8 . The perishable liquid delivery system of  claim 1  wherein said vessel comprises an insoluble barrier adhered to the vessel between said container portion and said soluble barrier. 
     
     
         9 . The perishable liquid delivery system of  claim 8  wherein said cap comprises internal threads and said insoluble barrier is adhered substantially inside and beyond the internal threads of said cap. 
     
     
         10 . The perishable liquid delivery system of  claim 8  wherein said insoluble barrier is adhered to said container portion, thereby functioning as a sealing means to prevent solvent liquid contained within said container portion from exiting said container portion. 
     
     
         11 . The perishable liquid delivery system of  claim 1  wherein said soluble barrier comprises at least one said active ingredient. 
     
     
         12 . A device for preparing and dispensing at least one active ingredient comprising:
 a cap suitably adapted to be removably fitted to a container,
 said cap containing at least one active ingredient and having a soluble barrier to retain said active ingredient within said cap, 
 said container suitably adapted to contain a solvent liquid, 
   wherein at least one said active ingredient is GABA.   
     
     
         13 . The active ingredient dispensing device of  claim 12  wherein said active ingredient is in powder, liquid, or gel form. 
     
     
         14 . The active ingredient dispensing device of  claim 12  wherein said vessel comprises an insoluble barrier adhered to the cap such that the insoluble barrier separates the soluble barrier from the container. 
     
     
         15 . The active ingredient dispensing device of  claim 14  wherein said cap comprises internal threads and said insoluble barrier is adhered substantially inside and beyond the internal threads of said cap. 
     
     
         16 . The active ingredient dispensing device of  claim 12  wherein said soluble barrier comprises at least one said active ingredient. 
     
     
         17 . The active ingredient dispensing device of  claim 12  wherein said device further comprises a co-optimizer. 
     
     
         18 . The active ingredient dispensing device of  claim 17  wherein said co-optimizer is synergistic to the physiologic function of said active ingredient.
