Abstract
Novel macromolecular drug complexes containing a drug, like insulin, and a polymer having a plurality of acid moieties, like carboxyl moieties or phosphonic acid moieties, are disclosed. Compositions containing the macromolecular complexes are administered to individuals suffering from a disease, and the complexes release the drug, in vivo, to treat the disease, and to reduce, eliminate, or reverse complications associated with the disease.
