A composition includes a therapeutically effective pharmaceutical dosage form including a plurality of individual particulates. The individual particulates respectively have: a core including an active ingredient combination of an L-carnitine and a nootropic substance and a release controlling polymer over the core that substantially prevents release of the active ingredients in stomach acid and permits release of the active ingredients in an intestinal pH environment. The composition may be used to treat conditions associated with a reduction of the amount of L-carnitine in the body and/or cognitive impairment.

The invention disclosed herein relates to a novel synergistic nutritional composition for promoting axonal regeneration. Particularly, the present invention provides potent nutritional composition comprising synergistic exogenous blend of agmatine (decarboxylated L-arginine) and inosine monophosphate (IMP) and salts thereof, which are present in a weight ratio of 1:0.05 to 1:2 along with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The instant synergistic nutritional composition is useful for treating diseases or disorders related to traumatic injury in the central nervous system such as brain or spinal cord injury, optic nerve lesions.

A film coating composition comprising a cellulosic polymer, an opacifying agent, and a fatty acid is disclosed herein. Also disclosed is a film coating composition comprising a cellulosic polymer, an opacifying agent, a plasticizing agent, and a polyol. The disclosed film coating compositions may be mixed with a solvent to produce a film coating suspension. The film coating suspension can be applied to a substrate, such as a nutritional supplement, pharmaceutical, tablet, capsule, softgel, granule, particle, food confectionary form, agricultural seed, and the like to form a film coating on the substrate. Methods of coating a substrate with the film coating suspensions are also provided.

The present invention provides a composition for providing thickness to foods and drinks and improving swallowability for foods and drinks. More specifically, the present invention is a composition comprising a first thickener and a second thickener for providing thickness to foods and drinks and improving swallowability for foods and drinks, wherein

the first thickener shows pseudoplasticity at the shear rate from 1 to 100S.sup.−1,

the second thickener shows Newtonian viscosity at the shear rate from 1 to 100S.sup.−1,

and the thickeneing effect when the first and the second thickeners are used in combination in an equal amount is equal to or less than an additive level of the thickening effect when each were used alone.
