The present invention is directed to orally administered compositions of topically acting corticosteroids for the treatment of inflammation of the gastrointestinal tracts such as eosinophilic esophagitis. The present invention also provides a method for treating conditions associated with inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract in an individual. The method comprises administering to an individual in need thereof a pharmaceutical composition of the present invention as orally disintegrating tablets comprising a topically active corticosteroid adsorbed onto a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier such as silicified microcrystalline cellulose.

The present invention relates to a systemic formulation, in particular an oral formulation, for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of coeliac disease, i.e. for use in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of coeliac disease.

The present disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a thermally conductive excipient which may be used to improve the heat transfer within the pharmaceutical compositions in a high energy mixing process. The resultant pharmaceutical compositions may be amorphous in nature and improve the processability of thermally labile or shear sensitive active agents.

The present invention relates to methods for treatment of cardiovascular conditions selected from high blood pressure, heart failure, or heart attack. The present invention further relates to a method of treating cardiovascular conditions comprising orally administering once a day to a human subject in need thereof the compound valsartan in an extended release dosage form, wherein the ratio of mean plasma concentration of valsartan provided by the extended release dosage form to the mean plasma concentration of valsartan provided by an immediate release dosage form of valsartan over 8 hour to 24 hour period after administration is greater than 1 in a single dose human pharmacokinetic study.

Pharmaceutical formulations of novel indole compounds and psilocybin analogs are manufactured, provided in novel oral, transdermal, and nasal pharmaceutical compositions for use to treat neurological, mood or abuse diseases and disorders.

The present invention is a method of producing a lanthanum carbonate hydroxide or lanthanum oxycarbonate which has improved properties. The method involves the use of a water soluble lanthanum and a water soluble non-alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate. The resulting material can be used as a phosphate binder individually or for treating patients with hyperphosphatemia.

The present invention relates to a solid pharmaceutical formulation comprising misoprostol or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In particular, the invention relates to a dispersible tablet comprising misoprostol or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, providing alternative routes of administration. The tablet is particularly suited for cervical ripening, induction of labor, prevention and/or treatment of postpartum or post-abortion hemorrhage.

The invention relates to stable preparations of thymoquinone and methods of making and administering stable preparations of thymoquinone. Embodiments of the methods provide compositions comprising thymoquinone with phosphatidylcholine and/or guggulsterol and/or guggulsterol derivatives and/or sodium cholesteryl sulfate, in tablet, capsule, gel, or ointment forms, and method of administering the preparations.

The present disclosure provides programmable osmotic-controlled oral compositions providing delayed release of a therapeutically acceptable amount of a drug. In certain embodiments, the programmable osmotic-controlled compositions of the disclosure provide a lag time that is independent of the presence or absence of food, type of food, pH, gastric emptying, and volume of gastric fluid. The programmable osmotic-controlled oral compositions of the disclosure comprise a multilayer core comprising a drug for controlled release, wherein the core is coated with a semipermeable membrane comprising an orifice and, optionally, an immediate release coating, comprising a drug for immediate release, over the semipermeable membrane. The multilayered core comprises a pull layer containing the drug and a push layer. The pull layer comprises at least two layers: a placebo layer for providing a desired lag time for the drug release; and an active layer containing the drug and providing a delayed controlled release of the drug. The compositions of the disclosure can be programmed to provide a desired and precise lag time, and release drug, after the lag time, at a rhythm, e.g., that matches the human circadian rhythm of a condition's symptoms and/or of the individual being treated in the application of the therapy to optimize therapeutic outcome and minimize side effects.

The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions of DPP IV inhibitors with an amino group, their preparation and their use to treat diabetes mellitus.
