If desired this second administration of component 1 crobenetine may be followed others.
Some particular embodiments of formulations for parenteral administration are described hereinafter which may be used in particular for the compounds of formulae 1a and 1b which are particularly preferably used as sodium channel blockers 1.
These formulations contain at least one compound of formula 1a or 1b or one of the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof and a cyclodextrin derivative, particularly gamma-cyclodextrin (y-CD), hydroxypropyl-gamma-cyclodextrin (HP-y-CD), hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-~3-CD) or sulphobutylether-beta-cyclodextrin (SBE-~i-CD). The preferred cyclodextrin derivative is hydroxypropyl~y-cyclodextrin. Hydroxypropyl-'y-cyclodextrin with a molar substitution level of 0.5 to 0.7 is sold for example by Messrs Wacker-Chemie GmbH, D-Burghausen, under the name "CAVASOL ~ W8 HP Pharma".
"CAVASOL ~ W8 HP Pharma" is particularly preferred for these pharmaceutical compositions.
Apart from the compound of formula 1a or 1b and the cyclodextrin derivative the pharmaceutical compositions intended for parenteral use according to the invention may contain hydroxy acids such as for example malic acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid or citric acid. They may also optionally contain conventional excipients and carriers such as for example the isotonic agents glucose, mannitol or sodium chloride or sodium acetate or sodium acetate trihydrate as buffer combined with acetic acid or a citric acid/phosphate buffer consisting of e.g. citric acid and disodium hydrogen phosphate or disodium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate. The solvent used is normally water for injections.
The molar ratio of the compound of formula 1a or 1b to cyclodextrin is between 1:1 and 1:5 for example in these formulations. A molar ratio of 1 :
2.5 to 1 : 3.5 is preferred. In the presence of hydroxy acid this molar ratio is preferably between 1 : 0.5 and 1 : 3 according to the invention; a molar ratio of 1 : 0.5 to 1 : 1.5 is particularly preferred. These formulations are most preferably used with crobenetine as component 1.
Apart from the formulations described above containing at least one compound of formula 1a or 1b or one of the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof and a cyclodextrin derivative, equally preferred formulations for parenteral use according to the invention are those which contain mannitol as excipi~nt, in addition to a compound of formula 1a or 1b or one of the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The amount of mannitol is preferably chosen so as to obtain an isotonic solution. These pharmaceutical compositions may optionally also contain other conventional excipients and carriers such as for example an acetic acid/acetate buffer consisting of acetic acid and sodium acetate or sodium acetate-trihydrate or a citric acid/phosphate buffer consisting for example of citric acid and disodium hydrogen phosphate or disodium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate. Usually, the quantity of the buffer components is selected so as to obtain a particular pH
value and a particular buffer capacity. The solvent used is normally water for injections.
Preferably, the pharmaceutical composition contains an acetic acid/acetate buffer in addition to the isotonic agent mannitol. A 0.005 to 0.05 molar, preferably a 0.005 to 0.02 molar acetic acid/ acetate buffer with a pH of 3.8 to 5 is particularly preferred while a 0.01 molar acetic acid/acetate buffer with a pH value of about 4 is most particularly preferred. The concentration specified relates to the total concentration of acetic acid and acetate; the ratio of acetic acid to acetate results from the desired pH. The pH specified is measured both in the pure buffer solution and in the finished solution for injection of infusion.
These formulations are particularly preferably used when crobenetine is used as component 1.

For example the daily administration of 100 ml of a solution according to Example 1 corresponds to a dose of 280 mg of crobenetine a day.
D.3) Pharmaceutical formulation and administration of component 2' The fibrinolytic 2 used within the scope of the drug combination according to the invention is generally a polypeptide which has to be given parenterally.
It may be given particularly by intravenous, intraarterial, intramuscular, intra-or subcutaneous injection, but may also be administered by inhalation of a powder or aerosol. Typical formulations are freeze-dried preparations (lyophilisates) of the polypeptide, which are reconstituted immediately before administration with a solution for injection or infusion. The reconstituting solution may be water or a buffered aqueous solution. The formulation may, however, also consist of an aqueous solution which is preferably buffered with a physiologically acceptable buffer and may additionally contain conventional stabilisers, solubilisers and preservatives. Examples of conventional adjuvants for liquid or solid formulations of this kind are alkali metal hydrogen phosphate/alkali metal dihydrogen phosphate, sodium chloride, serum albumin, polyoxyethylenesorbitan-monolaurate (Tween~ 20), polyoxyethylenesorbitan-monooleate (Tween~ 80), ethylenediamine-tetraacetate (EDTA), sucrose, mannitol, dextran, amino acid and benzylalcohol (the latter only for liquid formulations). They are generally administered parenterally, preferably by intravenous injection or infusion.
The mode of application and dosage preferably depend on the fibrinolytic selected, particularly its specific biological activity and half-life in the blood plasma.
Thus, alteplase, which has a relatively short half-life, is typically administered in a total dosage of 100 mg as follows: 10-15 mg as an intravenous bolus, followed by an intravenous infusion of 50 mg over a period of 30 to 60 minutes, followed by another infusion of 60-180 minutes up to the maximum dose. Tenecteplase has a longer half-life and can therefore be administered as a single bolus, based on body weight, up to a maximum dose of 50 mg.
Reteplase, which has a moderate half-life and low specific activity, is administered as an intravenous double bolus at an interval of 30 minutes in a dosage of 10 units (560 mg) per bolus. The skilled man knows how to determine the correct dosage for a new pharmaceutical composition. For the plasminogen activators mentioned by name, the skilled man can find information as to formulations and dosages in the literature mentioned above.
