The pharmaceutical compositions contain at least one IPN forming system, at least one drug, and at least one gas generating agent, such that upon oral ingestion of the compositions, a floating IPN is formed in situ. These floating IPN provide extended release of the drug entrapped therein for at least about 3 hours.

An orally administrable drug powder composition which forms a gastro-retentive RAFT having at least two trigger pulses is provided. The composition contains, at a minimum, (a) at least one drug in an immediate release pulse release form; (b) at least one drug in a delayed trigger release form; (c) at least one non-toxic gas generating agent and (d) a RAFT system, wherein following oral ingestion, the composition provides a self-assembling gastro-retentive RAFT having entrapped therein, the at least one drug of (a) and (b) and the gas generated in situ by the non-toxic gas generating agent, thereby providing a floating gastro-retentive RAFT having a dual pulse system wherein at least the second pulse is a trigger pulse and which retains the at least one drug in the stomach for at least about 3 hours, provided that the composition does not include a gamma hydroxybutyrate and its salts, hydrates, tautomers, or solvates, or complexes thereof.

The invention belongs to the technical field of health food and particularly relates to a composition for relieving stress and enhancing immunity and a preparation method thereof. The composition for relieving stress and enhancing immunity is calculated in parts by weight, 100-300 parts of a radix curcuma extract, 100-250 parts of a sea cucumber extract, 100-250 parts of a chlorella extract, 50-150 parts of a cranberry extract, 100-300 parts of a ginseng extract, 80-150 parts of a coconut oil extract and 100-200 parts of a palm oil extract. The composition can significantly enhance the body's immunity, relieve mental stress and improve the level of human health. In addition, the composition of the present invention is suitable for long-term use and has a small adverse reaction.

Embodiments of the present disclosure encompass systems and methods for in-situ/in vivo, bottom-up tissue generation for wound repair, repair of tissue defects, and the like. Embodiments of the systems of the present disclosure include modular scaffolds seeded with cells (modular tissue forming units (MTFUs)) for packing a tissue defect, such that these MTFUs are able to fill the wound bed with cells of one or more needed tissue types supported by the modular scaffolding particles.

A sustained-release preparation containing pseudoephedrine is provided comprising pseudoephedrine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a hardened oil or stearic acid. The sustained-release preparation containing pseudoephedrine may contain a hardened oil or stearic acid in an amount of 100% by mass to 500% by mass with respect to the content of the pseudoephedrine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In addition, the sustained-release preparation containing pseudoephedrine may have a first part and a second part, the first part may contain the pseudoephedrine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and the first part or the second part may contain an optional active ingredient.

An abuse-deterrent pharmaceutical composition has been developed to reduce the likelihood of improper administration of drugs, especially drugs such as opioids. In the preferred embodiment, the drug is modified to increase its lipophilicity by forming a salt between the drug and one or more fatty acids wherein the concentration of the one or more fatty acids is one to 15 times the molar amount of the active agent, preferably two to ten times the molar amount of the active agent. In one embodiment the modified drug is homogeneously dispersed within microparticles composed of a material that is either slowly soluble or not soluble in water. In some embodiments the drug containing microparticles or drug particles are coated with one or more coating layers, where at least one coating is water insoluble and preferably organic solvent insoluble. The abuse-deterrent composition prevents the immediate release of a substantial portion of drug, even if the physical integrity of the formulation is compromised (for example, by chopping with a blade or crushing) and the resulting material is placed in water, snorted, or swallowed. However, when administered as directed, the drug is slowly released from the composition as the composition is broken down or dissolved gradually within the GI tract by a combination of enzymatic, degradation, surfactant action of bile acids, and mechanical erosion.

An abuse-deterrent pharmaceutical composition has been developed to reduce the likelihood of improper administration of drugs, especially drugs such as opioids. In a preferred embodiment, a drug is modified to increase its lipophilicity. In some embodiments the modified drug is homogeneously dispersed within spherical microparticles composed of a material that is either slowly soluble or not soluble in water. In some embodiments the drug containing microparticles or drug particles are coated with one or more coating layers, where at least one coating is water insoluble and/or organic solvent insoluble. The abuse-deterrent composition retards the release of drug, even if the physical integrity of the formulation is compromised (for example, by chopping with a blade or crushing) and the resulting material is placed in water, snorted, or swallowed. However, when administered as directed, the drug is slowly released from the composition as the composition is passes through the GI tract.

A tamper-resistant pharmaceutical dosage form comprising a multitude of particles which comprise a pharmacologically active compound, a polyalkylene oxide, and a disintegrant; wherein the pharmacologically active compound is dispersed in a matrix comprising the polyalkylene oxide and the disintegrant; wherein the content of the disintegrant is more than. 5.0 wt.-%, based on the total weight of the pharmaceutical dosage form and/or based on the total weight of the particles; wherein the content of the polyalkylene oxide is at least 25 wt.-%, based on the total weight of the pharmaceutical dosage form and/or based on the total weight of the particles; and wherein the dosage form provides under in vitro conditions immediate release of the pharmacologically active compound in accordance with Ph. Eur.
