Provided is a composition, in particular a solid pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound having the formula I ##STR00001##
as a free base or a salt thereof, and a mixture comprising a vehicle and a non-ionic surfactant in an amount sufficient to achieve solubilization of compound (I), wherein typically the composition is coated with an enteric coating and its use in the treatment of cancer.

The present invention relates to a stable solid oral pharmaceutical multi-component composition comprising combination of blood pressure lowering drugs with lipid lowering agent/s and optionally a platelet aggregation inhibitor in a single dosage form. The blood pressure lowering agents are selected from β-adrenergic receptor blocking agent, ACE inhibitor and diuretic. The lipid lowering agent is selected from HMG Co-enzyme-A reductase inhibitor. The pharmaceutical composition made as per present invention a) overcomes any drug-drug interactions, b) exhibits pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of individual therapeutic agent, c) has minimal side effects. The invention provides multi-component composition (MCC) to increase adherences to therapy. The MCC as per present invention provides compositions that maintain activity of all active ingredients without significant increase in adverse event profile. The present invention further relates to a method of preparing the said pharmaceutical composition.

Orally administerable deferasirox formulations are disclosed having reduced release under gastric conditions and fast release at near neutral pH or at neutral pH.

Extended release pyridostigmine dosage forms, suitable for maintaining stable plasma concentrations with reduced or minimized initial burst release/dose dumping of pyridostigmine, are provided. The dosage forms include matrix tablets, gastroretentive tablets, and pellets, the latter being suitable for dosing in capsules, tablets, and sachets, as well as for sprinkling on foodstuffs. The disclosure also provides methods for improving patient compliance by administering once-a-day extended release pyridostigmine bromide dosage forms that provide a superior controlled drug release.

A solid dosage form comprises an inner core containing a cycloserine compound and an outer layer attached to the inner core. The dosage form can be enteric tablet or transdermal patch, suitable for treating a neuropsychiatric disorder or tuberculosis.

A modified release benzonatate solid tablet or capsule is described which comprises a benzonatate adsorbate in a matrix with a sufficient amount of one or more pharmaceutically acceptable modified release pH-independent, substances to provide a modified release profile to the benzonatate, wherein there is substantially no benzonatate release from the tablet or capsule in the buccal cavity and no more than about 25% release of the benzonatate within 1 hour as determined in an in vitro dissolution assay.

The present invention relates to stable pharmaceutical compositions comprising linaclotide or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, as well as to various methods and processes for the preparation and use of the compositions.

The invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing rosuvastatin calcium of formula (I) and processes for their manufacture.

The invention provides a multi-layered pharmaceutical composition comprising two or more formulations with varying properties. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions provide combinations of different organoleptic properties within the same product. In certain embodiment, these combinations allow for a modified release profile of active ingredients as the user enjoys the pharmaceutical composition. The invention further provides methods for making and using the pharmaceutical composition.

A mesalamine pharmaceutical composition with reduced delivery variability for delivery of mesalamine to the colon that includes multiple dosage elements, and each dosage element includes mesalamine and an enteric coating. The enteric coating of each different dosage element differs so the release point of the mesalamine in the GI tract is varied. In one embodiment, a first dosage element releases about 30% to about 60% by weight of the total mesalamine in the composition after 60 minutes at a pH of about 6.6 in an aqueous phosphate buffer using a paddle apparatus 2 with a paddle speed of 100 rpm and a second dosage element releases about 40% to about 70% by weight of the total mesalamine after 60 minutes at a pH of about 7.2 in an aqueous phosphate buffer using a paddle apparatus 2 with a paddle speed of 100 rpm.
