Abstract

Aqueous phospholipid systems comprising at least one phospholipid, at least one bile acid and water are suitable for producing medicaments for the treatment of adipose tissue disorders and lead to regression of the pathologically proliferated adipose tissue.

Claims (22)

1 . A method for the treatment of an adipose tissue disorder comprising the administration of an efficacious amount of an aqueous system comprising at least one bile acid.

2 . A method for the treatment of cellulite comprising the administration of an efficacious amount of an aqueous system comprising at least one bile acid.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the bile acid is selected from deoxycholic acid, cholic acid, lithocholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, hyodeoxycholic acid, trihydroxycoprostanic acid, ursodeoxycholic acid, taurocholic acid, and glycocholic acid, or physiologically tolerated salts thereof, or a mixture thereof.

4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the bile acid is a physiologically tolerated sodium, potassium or ammonium salt.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the adipose tissue disorder is a lipoma, Dercum's disease, Madelung's neck, lipedema, xanthelasama or piezogenic nodules.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the adipose tissue disorder is adipose tissue tumors.

7 . A method for the treatment of an adipose tissue disorder comprising the administration of an efficacious amount of an aqueous system consisting essentially of at least one bile acid and water.

8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the bile acid is in the form of a physiologically tolerated salt.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the bile acid is a sodium, potassium and/or ammonium salt of deoxycholic acid, cholic acid, lithocholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, hyodeoxycholic acid, trihydroxycoprostanic acid, ursodeoxycholic acid, taurocholic acid, or glycocholic acid.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the bile acid is a sodium, a potassium or an ammonium salt of deoxycholic acid.

11 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the adipose tissue disorder is a lipoma, Dercum's disease, Madelung's neck, lipedema, xanthelasama or piezogenic nodules.

12 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the adipose tissue disorder is adipose tissue tumors.

13 . A method for the treatment of cellulite comprising the administration of an efficacious amount of an aqueous system consisting essentially of at least one bile acid and water.

14 . The method of claim 13 , wherein the bile acid is in the form of a physiologically tolerated salt.

15 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the bile acid is a sodium, potassium and/or ammonium salt of deoxycholic acid, cholic acid, lithocholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, hyodeoxycholic acid, trihydroxycoprostanic acid, ursodeoxycholic acid, taurocholic acid, or glycocholic acid.

16 . The method of claim 15 , wherein the bile acid is a sodium, a potassium or an ammonium salt of deoxycholic acid.

17 . Aqueous system for subcutaneous injection for the treatment of an adipose tissue disorder comprising at least one of a bile acid.

18 . The aqueous system of claim 17 consisting essentially of a bile acid and water.

19 . The aqueous system of claim 18 , wherein the bile acid is a sodium, a potassium and/or an ammonium salt of deoxycholic acid.

20 . Aqueous system for subcutaneous injection for the treatment of cellulite comprising at least one of a bile acid.

21 . The aqueous system of claim 20 consisting essentially of a bile acid and water.

22 . The aqueous system of claim 21 , wherein the bile acid is a sodium, a potassium and/or an ammonium salt of deoxycholic acid.
