The present application relates to a method for the preparation of a nanosuspension comprising nanoparticles of at least one natural material and an extract of at least one natural material, wherein the method comprises the steps of providing particles of at least one natural material having a particle size (D.sub.100) of less than 320 m; providing an extract of at least one natural material; dispersing said particles of at least one natural material and said extract of at least one natural material in a solvent; and milling the dispersion to a particle size (D.sub.90) of below 1000 nm (D.sub.90<1000 nm). Furthermore, the present application also relates to a nanosuspension prepared according to said method, and the use of such nanosuspension for the preparation of a medicament and/or nutritional supplement.

Tamper-resistant pharmaceutical compositions have been developed to reduce the likelihood of improper administration of drugs, especially drugs such as opioids. The tamper-resistant compositions retard the release of drug, even if the physical integrity of the formulation is compromised (for example, by chopping with a blade or crushing) and the resulting material is placed in water, snorted, or swallowed. However, when administered as directed, the drug is slowly released from the composition as the composition is passes through the GI tract.

The present invention provides particulate delivery systems comprising plurality of particles comprising fenugreek gum and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. The particulate delivery systems of the present invention are used for the delivery of therapeutic, immunologic or diagnostic agents, and the like.

The present specification discloses pharmaceutical compositions, methods of preparing such pharmaceutical compositions, and methods and uses of treating a chronic inflammation and/or an inflammatory disease in an individual using such pharmaceutical compositions.

The present invention provides methods for preventing, inhibiting or treating a surgical site infection associated with a surgical operation comprising the step of applying to the surgical site a biocompatible, biodegradable substrate being impregnated and/or having its surface coated fully or partially with a matrix composition which provides local controlled and prolonged release of at least one pharmaceutically active agent at the surgical site.

Aspects described herein relate to food and beverage compositions infused with lipophilic active agents and methods of use for the treatment of a variety of disorders. More particularly, aspects described herein relate to food and beverage compositions infused with lipophilic active agents such as cannabinoids, nicotine, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs), and vitamins, that provide enhanced bioavailability of the lipophilic active agents in a subject, and that mask unpleasant tastes of lipophilic active agents.
