The invention relates to solid medicinal forms containing at least one active ingredient and at least one pharmaceutically compatible, water soluble drying agent which is selected from the group consisting of trimagnesium dicitrate and/or calcium chloride, the solid medicinal form having a drying loss of at most 6% and a relative equilibrium moisture content of 25% or less. The invention also relates to solid medicinal forms containing a moisture-sensitive active ingredient and trimagnesium dicitrate.

The invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising: (a) at least one angiotensin receptor blocker or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and (b) at least one chemokine receptor pathway inhibitor or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising: (a) at least one angiotensin receptor blocker or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and (b) at least one chemokine receptor pathway inhibitor or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof which inhibits a component of the chemokine receptor pathway other than the chemokine receptor. Oral sustained release pharmaceutical compositions comprising the pharmaceutical composition, as well as injectable sustained release pharmaceutical compositions comprising the pharmaceutical composition are described. The invention further relates to tablets, capsules, injectable suspensions, and compositions for pulmonary or nasal delivery comprising the pharmaceutical composition. Also described are: methods for assessing the efficacy of the pharmaceutical composition; methods for assessing the inhibition or partial inhibition activity of the pharmaceutical composition; methods for the treatment, amelioration or prevention of a condition or disease comprising administering to a subject a therapeutically effective amount of the pharmaceutical composition; and the use of the pharmaceutical composition for the manufacture of a dosage form for the treatment of a disease.

A process for the preparation of an oral disintegrating tablet comprising the antihypertensive telmisartan and the tablet obtained by the process.

A drug delivery system is presented to increase the bioavailability of biopharmaceutic class II, III, or IV active agents.

The present invention is concerned with dispersible compositions comprising bedaquiline fumarate as an active ingredient. Such compositions are useful in the treatment of tuberculosis and their inherent dispersibility properties lend themselves to be useful in particular amongst the pediatric or geriatric population.

The present invention relates to methods for treating uremic pruritus with anti-pruritic compositions, wherein the method provides a therapeutic effect in a patient.

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition including (i) as a major ingredient, a novel 5-{4-(Aminosulfonyl)phenyl}-2,2-dimethyl-4-(3-fluorophenyl)-3(2H)-furanone compound (Formula 1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which has a crystalline form A or G, or a mixed form thereof and has a 50% volume particle diameter (d.sub.(0.5)) of 3 μm to 9 μm and a 90% volume particle diameter (d.sub.(0.9)) of 10 μm to 50 μm, (ii) a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent, and (iii) a pharmaceutically acceptable lubricant. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention has the advantages of good stability, high dissolution rate, improved content uniformity, and excellent pharmacokinetic properties. Due to these advantages, as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention may be effective in treating inflammation or pain.

The present invention provides a method for safe and efficacious administration of esketamine.

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical formulation comprising the drug 4-[3-(4-cyclopropanecarbonyl-piperazine-1-carbonyl)-4-fluoro-benzyl]-2H-phthalazin-1-one in a solid dispersion with a matrix polymer that exhibits low hygroscopicity and high softening temperature, such as copovidone. The invention also relates to a daily pharmaceutical dose of the drug provided by such a formulation. In addition, the invention relates to the use of a matrix polymer that exhibits low hygroscopicity and high softening temperature in solid dispersion with 4-[3-(4-cyclopropanecarbonyl-piperazine-1-carbonyl)-4-fluoro-benzyl]-2H-phthalazin-1-one for increasing the bioavailability of the drug.

The present invention relates to a new formulation of specific nutritional ingredients (nutraceuticals) and/or pharmaceutical compounds.
