Gastric residence systems comprising therapeutic agent formulations for sustained gastric release of therapeutic agents are disclosed, as well as methods for using such systems. The systems are characterized by use of a dispersant in the formulations, which improves the burst release characteristics and long-term release rate characteristics of the systems. Milling of therapeutic agent can also be performed to prepare agent particles of desired size.

This disclosure is directed, at least in part, to SSTR5 antagonists useful for the treatment of conditions or disorders involving the gut-brain axis. In some embodiments, the SSTR5 antagonists are gut-restricted compounds. In some embodiments, the condition or disorder is a metabolic disorder, such as diabetes, obesity, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), or a nutritional disorder such as short bowel syndrome.
