A multi-compartment capsule may include a body, a diaphragm between, which seals off the body and provides a first compartment to hold an ingredient, and a cap applied to the body whereby a space between the inner portion of the cap and the diaphragm defines a second compartment for holding an oil. A two-compartment capsule may include a body, a diaphragm between, which seals off the body and provides a first compartment to hold an oil, and a cap applied to the body whereby a space between the inner portion of the cap and the diaphragm defines a second compartment for holding an ingredient. The ingredient may have increased bioavailability after exposure to the oil. This disclosure also provides particular formulations for use in such a capsule.

Methods, compositions, and kits for adjunctive therapy using 25-hydroxyvitamin D are disclosed. The 25-hydroxyvitamin D may be administered with an agent that increases the risk of hypocalcemia, such as cinacalcet or a salt thereof, and/or an anticancer agent.

An object of the present invention is to obtain a capsule for treating ulcerative colitis which, when a capsule containing indigo is orally administered, acts more effectively than conventional ones and has less side effects of hepatotoxicity by not easily disintegrating in the stomach and small intestine but only in the large intestine. The present invention relates to a capsule for treating ulcerative colitis which disintegrates locally in the large intestine, comprising a drug-containing content, a protective layer coating the content and a film formed outside the protective layer, which are arranged concentrically, wherein the content is a content in which indigo, which is a drug for treating ulcerative colitis, is dispersed or dissolved, and the film is locally disintegrated in the large intestine.

The invention provides a particle comprising a lipid core and surface-decorated (nano)particles of at least one stabilizing material, for delivery of active agents.

The disclosure relates to a pharmaceutical or dietary composition in the form of a soft gel capsule comprising a liquid or semisolid fill and a shell, the fill comprising at least one active ingredient or dietary supplement, dissolved, suspended or solubilized in a solution comprising water and alcohol, and a solubilizer and thickening agent. The disclosure furthermore relates to methods of reducing brittleness and fragility of such soft gel capsules.

Among others, this invention provides a soft capsule comprising β-hydroxybutyric acid (BHB) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, ester, liposome, or mixture thereof as active ingredient, as well as method of making such soft capsule.

The present invention provides a solid oral pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically effective amount of living microorganisms and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable water absorbing excipient(s), wherein the composition has a water content, determined according to European Pharmacopoeia 9.4, section 2.5.12., from 0.5 to 30% with respect the total weight of the composition. The invention also provides processes for its preparation as well as it use in therapy. The live-cell based composition of the invention is stable at mild conditions.

The disclosure provides compositions comprising cannabinoids and active ingredients and/or excipients and methods of producing the compositions.

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.
