An oral methylphenidate extended release tablet is described, which can be scored and still retain its extended release profile. The tablet contains a combination of an uncoated methylphenidate-ion exchange resin complex, a barrier coated methylphenidate-ion exchange resin complex-matrix, and an uncomplexed methylphenidate active component. Following administration of a single dose of the extended release methylphenidate chewable tablet, a therapeutically effective amount of methylphenidate is reached in less than about 20 minutes and the composition provides a twelve-hour extended release profile.

The present invention provides a pH dependent vaginal composition delivering a therapeutically effective amount of at least one active essentially at a pH above 4.5. The composition provides a diagnostic visual pH indication of the presence of vulvovaginitis at pH above 4.5. In the absence of such indication, the treatment may be discontinued. Another visual signal is the retrieval of the unchanged composition, which also points to a normal pH at or below 4.5 and absence of vulvovaginitis.

Disclosed is a composition of 10 wt % to 99 wt % of carbon dioxide absorbent or adsorbent, wherein the carbon dioxide absorbent or adsorbent is selected from the group consisting of inorganic hydroxides of alkali hydroxides and/or alkaline earth metal hydroxides, molecular sieves, zeolites, zinc (ii) ions, deep eutectic solvents and/or silica, whereby the composition contains 1 wt % to 90 wt %, relative to the total composition, of a polymeric coating selected from the group consisting of silicone rubber obtained from liquid silicone rubber and cellulose derivative for use in medicine for the prophylaxis and treatment of respiratory diseases in a mammal.

The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising safinamide and, more particularly, to taste-masked particles comprising said active ingredient or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, oral dosage forms that include said particles and a process for preparing them.

The present patent application relates a process for the production of compressed tablets using specific coated particles, wherein the coating (system) comprises at least one wax and/or at least one fat. Furthermore it relates to compressed (compacted) tablets and as well as to specific coated particles.

The present invention relates to controlled release pharmaceutical compositions comprising fumaric acid ester(s) as active substance(s). The compositions are suitable for use in the treatment of e.g. psoriasis or other hyperproliferative, inflammatory or autoimmune disorders and arc designated to release the fumaric acid ester in a controlled manner so that local high concentrations of the active substance within the gastrointestinal tract upon oral administration can be avoided and, thereby, enabling a reduction in gastro-intestinal related side-effects.

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.
