Abstract

Provided herein are compositions and methods for preventing central nervous system oxygen toxicity in a subject.

Claims (21)

1. A method of treating or preventing central nervous system oxygen toxicity (CNS-OT) in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a ketone ester and a medium chain triglyceride to the subject, wherein administering the composition comprises administering a daily amount of about 1 mg/kg to about 5 g/kg bodyweight of each of the ketone ester and MCT.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition prevents, delays the onset of, or reduces the severity of tonic-clonic seizures in the subject.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ketone ester is 1,3-butanediol-acetoacetate diester.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ketone ester and the medium chain triglyceride have an approximate 1:1 ratio.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises a ketone salt.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the ketone salt is a β-hydroxybutyrate salt.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the ketone salt is a β-hydroxybutyrate mineral salt.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the β-hydroxybutyrate mineral salt is a Na + Ca 2+ β-hydroxybutyrate mineral salt.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the ketone salt and the medium chain triglyceride have an approximate 1:1 ratio.

10. A method of treating or preventing seizures in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a ketone ester and a medium chain triglyceride to the subject,

where in administering the composition comprises administering a daily amount of about 1 mg/kg to about 5 g/kg bodyweight of each of the ketone ester and MCT.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the composition delays the onset of or reduces the severity of seizures in the subject.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the seizure is from epilepsy.

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the ketone ester is 1,3-butanediol-acetoacetate diester.

14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the ketone ester and the medium chain triglyceride have an approximate 1:1 ratio.

15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the composition further comprises one or more ketogenic compounds is a ketone salt.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the ketone salt is κ β-hydroxybutyrate salt.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the ketone salt is a β-hydroxybutyrate mineral salt.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the β-hydroxybutyrate mineral salt is a Na + Ca 2+ β-hydroxybutyrate mineral salt.

19. The method of claim 15 , wherein the ketone salt and the medium chain triglyceride have an approximate 1:1 ratio.

20. A method of treating or preventing epileptic seizures in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a ketone supplement comprising a ketone ester to the subject.
