The present invention relates to a process for the production of an abuse-proofed dosage form containing, apart from one or more active ingredients with potential for abuse and optionally physiologically acceptable auxiliary substances, at least one synthetic or natural polymer (C) with a breaking strength of at least 500 N, wherein the formulation mixture is combined with a solvent for the polymer (C) at least in quantities such that the formulation mixture is at least uniformly moistened, the at least moistened composition is optionally divided into sub-portions, dried and shaped to yield the dosage form.

The present invention relates to rapidly disintegrating oral dosage forms, more particularly to rapidly disintegrating tablets containing (1S,2S,3R,5S)-3-[7-{[1R,2S)-2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)cyclopropyl]amino}-5-(propylthio)-3H-[1,2,3]-triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-3-yl]-5 5-(2-hydroxyethoxy)cyclopentane-1,2-diol and a disintegrating excipient. Blister packs suitable for use with the rapidly disintegrating oral dosage form are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to a solid pharmaceutical preparation of 3-Fluoro-4-[7-methoxy-3-methyl-8-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-1-yl]-benzonitrile, a method of making same, and medical uses thereof.

The present disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions, combinations, and uses thereof for treating and/or preventing cancer. For example, a pharmaceutical composition of the present disclosure can also include 2-acetylnaphtho[2,3-b]furan-4,9-dione, a prodrug thereof, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of any of the foregoing, or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate of any of the foregoing; and at least one excipient independently being a binder, a disintegrant, a lubricant, a surfactant, one other excipient, or a combination thereof. For example, a combination of the present disclosure can include 2-acetylnaphtho[2,3 b]furan-4,9-dione, a prodrug thereof, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of any of the foregoing, or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate of any of the foregoing; and at least one second agent independently being; a metabolic inhibitor, a transporter inhibitor, a NSAID, or a combination thereof.

Described herein are pharmaceutical formulations of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) inhibitor 1-((R)-3-(4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-1-yl)piperidin-1-yl)prop-2-en-1-one. Also disclosed are methods of using the Btk inhibitor, alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents, for the treatment of autoimmune diseases or conditions, heteroimmune diseases or conditions, cancer, including lymphoma, and inflammatory diseases or conditions.

The invention relates to compound of formula (I)

##STR00001##

wherein R.sup.1 to R.sup.3 are as defined in the description and in the claims. The compound of formula (I) can be used as a medicament.

The invention is directed to pharmaceutical compositions such as tablets that exhibit delayed release properties when administered as either whole or half tablets. The invention is also directed to delayed release tablets comprising deferiprone for oral administration, for which twice daily administration is bioequivalent to the same daily dose of an immediate release tablet administered thrice daily. The invention is also directed to methods of making and using the same.

The instant invention is generally directed to a patient-friendly drug delivery system for targeted populations, such as pediatric and geriatric patients. Specifically, the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition in the form of mini-tablets. Even more specifically, the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically-effective amount of melatonin in the form of mini-tablets.
