Zusammenfassung:The present embodiments provide systems and medical formulations suitable for delivering therapeutic powders to a target site. In one embodiment, the system comprises a delivery device, a first powder being formed of particles of a first material, and a second powder being formed of particles of a second material, wherein the second material is different than the first material. At least some of the particles of the first powder and the second powder are bound together to form bonded particles. The bonded particles are simultaneously delivered to the target site by the delivery device. In one embodiment, a medical formulation may comprise carbomer present in a range between about 60-80% by weight of the formulation, bentonite present in a range of between about 5-15% by weight of the formulation, and calcium carbonate present in a range of between about 10-30% by weight of the formulation.
