The present invention relates to an orodispersible tablet characterized in that it includes burlulipase. It also relates to liquid pharmaceutical compositions that contain solutions of such orodispersible tablets in water or other beverages. It relates to drugs that contain or consist of such orodispersible tablets or solutions. In particular, it relates to such drugs that are suitable for treating digestive problems, in particular exocrine pancreatic insufficiency used to treat digestive problems. In particular, they are for the treatment of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency in cystic fibrosis patients and for treatment of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency in pediatric patients.

Disclosed is a dry powder oral formulation that includes an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), a lecithin powder, a galactomannan, one or more sweetening agents, one or more flavoring agents and an organic acid in a pharmaceutically acceptable preparation. Also disclosed are an excipient composition in absence of an API and methods of making and using the formulations and compositions. Also disclosed is a chewable, swallowable, and/or orally disintegrating tablet comprising an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), a lecithin powder, a galactomannan, one or more sweetening agents, one or more flavoring agents and an organic acid in a pharmaceutically acceptable preparation.

Solid dosage forms, tablet processing aids, and methods of preparing solid dosage forms and tablet processing aids are described. The solid dosage forms contain a lubricant contains a rice bran wax. The amount of the rice bran wax in the lubricant is from about 60% to about 100% (w/w).

The present disclosure relates to processes for producing antihypertensive peptide compositions from milk compositions. It also relates to peptide compositions producible by the processes, as well as dosage forms, food products, supplements, powdered milk formula and beverages containing the peptide compositions, and to therapeutic methods and uses of the peptide compositions.

The invention is associated with ingestible film coated solid dosage forms comprising natural honey in the coating applied to such forms. The natural honey of the film coated solid dosage form is of sufficient level to be perceived by the user while avoiding sticking to each other or the packaging with which they are in contact and, or storage.

The present invention relates to a natural lubricant for direct compression and a method of preparing a synthetic additive-free natural tablet using the same. More particularly, the invention provides a crude fat-containing bean powder, which is used as a natural lubricant, and a method of preparing a natural tablet using the bean powder by a dry granulation process which is carried out using a roller compactor.

The present invention provides a novel substance that promotes expression of filaggrin gene involved in improvement of the moisture retention function of skin. The inventors of the present invention found that expression of filaggrin gene fluctuates rhythmically over a roughly 24 hour cycle, screened candidate substances based on the time at which expression reaches a maximum following addition of the candidate substance, and identified zanthoxylum extract, 3-(1′-piperidine)propionic acid, geranium oil, cypress oil, rose oil, galvanum oil, pepper oil, basil oil, methyl-o-toluate, methyl anthranilate and dimethyl anthranilate as filaggrin gene expression promoting agents.

The present invention is a method of producing a lanthanum carbonate hydroxide or lanthanum oxycarbonate which has improved properties. The method involves the use of a water soluble lanthanum and a water soluble non-alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate. The resulting material can be used as a phosphate binder individually or for treating patients with hyperphosphatemia.

This invention relates to pharmaceutical dosage forms for delivery of drugs susceptible to abuse, such as, for example, oxycodone and/or oxymorphone.

The present invention relates to stable solid formulations of vitamin D.sub.3 and to processes for preparation of the same. The present invention provides stabilized compositions comprising vitamin D.sub.3 at least one lipophilic dispersant, one or more antioxidants, at least one adsorbent and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients and further coated with a barrier coating.
