The present invention relates to solid oral controlled-release pharmaceutical compositions comprising a core consisting of a complex monolithic matrix comprising at least one low/medium viscosity hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, at least one medium/high viscosity hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, one or more methacrylic polymers or copolymers and/or cellulose acetate phthalate and/or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate or shellac, and an outer coating of said core consisting of a layer comprising ethylcellulose, or of a gastroresistant layer or of a layer comprising ethylcellulose coated in turn with gastroresistant polymers.

Agents, kits, and methods that utilize oxygenation to prevent and/or treat intestinal inflammation and/or infections caused by anaerobic microorganisms are provided. In several embodiments, the formulations are provided as a capsule within a capsule in order to separate an oxygen prodrug from a catalyst until the formulation is at a target site within the intestine. In several embodiments, the catalyst is provided in an excess of the oxygen prodrug. In several embodiments, the prodrug is within an inner capsule or coating and a biological material comprising a catalyst (e.g., yeast, spirulina, chlorella, etc.) surrounds the encapsulated prodrug and the biological material is within a capsule or coating. The agents, kits, and methods can be utilized to prevent and/or treat anaerobic bacterial infections of the intestinal lumen by enteric aerobization therapy.

A dosage form comprising a tablet core and one or more discontinuous coated regions in various configurations on the surface of the dosage form is disclosed. A method for making the dosage form is also disclosed.

The present invention relates to tablet dosage formulations of oleyl phosphocholine for oral administration and the processes for their preparation. Specifically, the present invention provides a process for preparing an oleyl phosphocholine containing granulate. The present invention further provides a process for preparing a pharmaceutical dosage formulation, such as a tablet or a capsule, comprising the oleyl phosphocholine containing granulate. The invention further provides any intermediate and/or en product resulting from these steps and processes.

In a delayed release formulation comprising a core containing a drug and a delayed release coating for providing intestinal release, release of the drug in the colon is accelerated by including an isolation layer between the core and the delayed release coating. The delayed release coating comprises an inner layer and an outer layer. The outer layer comprises a pH dependently soluble polymeric material which has a pH threshold at about pH 5 or above. The inner layer comprises a soluble polymeric material which is soluble in intestinal fluid or gastrointestinal fluid, said soluble polymeric material being selected from the group consisting of a polycarboxylic acid polymer that is at least partially neutralised, and a non-ionic polymer, provided that, where said soluble polymeric material is a non-ionic polymer, said inner layer comprises at least one additive selected from a buffer agent and a base.

A dosage form comprising a tablet core and one or more discontinuous coated regions in various configurations on the surface of the dosage form is disclosed. A method for making the dosage form is also disclosed.

Provided are pharmaceutical compositions and methods for preparing pharmaceutical compositions that preserve the coating of coated API particles in a pharmaceutical suspension. Pharmaceutical compositions include coated active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) particles comprising: an API particle; a first coating comprising one or more deformed components coating the API particle; a second coating comprising silica surrounding and/or partially or fully embedded into the first coating, a matrix former, and a structure former.

The present invention relates to new pharmaceutical compositions comprising benzoquinoline compounds, and methods to inhibit vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) activity in a subject for the treatment of chronic hyperkinetic movement disorders.

The present disclosure is directed to compositions of materials and methods of making those compositions. These compositions include cellulose materials that may be consumed by an animal without chewing. Compositions of the present disclosure may also include coatings that resist dissolution in the mouth of an animal, yet readily dissolve in the digestive tract of an animal or human/person. The present disclosure is also directed to administering selected compositions to treat specific ailments or conditions that may affect animals or humans. Such treatments include treating conditions related to improving gut health, reducing neuro-inflammation, and treating metabolic diseases. Additionally, such treatments include the stimulation, enhancement and/or compatibility with microbiota and the effects of microbiota on diseases and conditions, such as gut health of an animal, including a human.
