tenth of a degree . accordingly , peak positions reported herein are rounded to one - tenth of a degree past the decimal . compositions made with or comprising a crystalline compound of this invention may be administered , for example , bucally , ophthalmically , orally , osmotically , parenterally ( intramuscularly , intrasternally , intravenously , subcutaneously ), rectally , topically , transdermally or vaginally . ophthalmically administered dosage forms may be administered as , for example , elixirs , emulsions , microemulsions , ointments , solutions , suspensions or syrups . orally administered solid dosage forms may be administered as , for example , capsules , dragees , emulsions , granules , pills , powders , solutions , suspensions , tablets , microemulsions , elixirs , syrups or powders for reconstitution . osmotically and topically administered dosage forms may be administered as , for example , creams , gels , inhalants , lotions , ointments , pastes or powders . parenterally administered dosage forms may be administered , as , for example , aqueous or oleaginous suspensions . rectally and vaginally dosage forms may be administered , for example , as creams , gels , lotions , ointments or pastes . the therapeutically acceptable amount of a crystalline compound of this invention depends on recipient of treatment , disorder being treated and severity thereof , composition containing it , time of administration , route of administration , duration of treatment , its potency , its rate of clearance and whether or not another drug is co -
