The present invention relates to a starch-free soft chew formulation for oral delivery of at least one active ingredient to an animal, and a starch-free soft chew containing the formulation and at least one active ingredient. The starch-free soft chew includes one or more active ingredients and excipients, such as a bulking agent, a flavoring agent, a humectant, a preservative, an antioxidant, and a lubricant, but no added water. In addition, the invention relates to a composition of starch-free, non-water excipients for use in the final dosage form of a soft chew for oral administration of at least one active ingredient to an animal. Also provided are processes for making the starch-free soft chew formulation and the starch-free soft chew.

The present invention relates to the technical field of medicine and relates to an instant release pharmaceutical preparation of an anticoagulant and a preparation method therefor. The instant release pharmaceutical preparation of an anticoagulant comprises a vicagrel compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable form thereof, the preparation is a tablet or a capsule, the vicagrel or the pharmaceutically acceptable form thereof is provided at a suitable particle size, and the D90 thereof <50 μm. With regard to the drug-containing particles obtained by the present invention, a pharmaceutical preparation formed therefrom exhibits rapid release characteristics in an in vitro dissolution test and exhibits considerable advantages in pharmacokinetics in vivo, showing a greater degree (AUC) and rate (C.sub.max) of drug absorption. Further provided by the present invention is a method for preparing an instant release pharmaceutical preparation of an anticoagulant; according to the formulation of the drug-containing particles as disclosed by the present invention, a capsule or tablet instant release preparation having excellent stability may be obtained by means of a combination of optional preparation steps.

The present invention provides compositions comprising one or more active pharmaceutical ingredients, wherein the compositions are in the form of high solids concentration pastes capable of being injected in relatively low volumes into an animal using standard commercially available syringes. The invention also provides methods of making such compositions, particularly those compositions comprising high molecular weight active ingredients (e.g., antibodies, enzymes and other proteins and peptides) at relatively high therapeutic concentrations in the high solids concentration pastes. The invention further provides methods of using such formulations in treating, preventing and/or ameliorating certain diseases and physical disorders in animals, including humans, in need thereof. The invention also provides kits comprising the formulations of the invention and a suitable syringe, which in some aspects may be pre-loaded or pre-filled with a composition of the invention.

The present invention provides for bioavailable oral dosage forms containing esters of 17-hydroxyprogesterone as well as related methods. The oral dosage forms can be formulated for pregnancy support and can include a therapeutically effective amount of an ester of 17-hydroxyprogesterone and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. In another embodiment, a pharmaceutically acceptable oral dosage form for pregnancy support is provided. The pharmaceutically acceptable oral dosage can include a therapeutically effective amount of an ester of 17-hydroxyprogesterone and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The oral dosage form can, when measured using a USP Type-II dissolution apparatus in 900 mL of deionized water with 0.5 (w/v) of sodium lauryl sulfate at 50 RPM at 37° C., release at least 20 wt % of the dose of the ester of 17-hydroxyprogesterone after 60 minutes, or in the alternative release at least 20 wt % more after 60 minutes than an equivalently dosed oral dosage form without the carrier.

The present disclosure relates to use of Sodium 3,5-dichloro-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3,5-triazinan-1-ide having a chemical structure:

##STR00001##

for the treatment and/or prevention of COVID-19 infection. The present disclosure further relates to a pharmaceutical formulation that is administered in the form of dry powder inhalation (DPI) to the subject. The dry powder inhalation formulation comprises a micronized Sodium 3,5-dichloro-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3,5-triazinan-1-ide, a first lactose, a second lactose, and at least one excipient. The pharmaceutical formulation of the present disclosure increases the bioavailability of the NaDCC, has patient compliance, and reduced adverse effects.

A respirable dry powder including acetylsalicylic acid in particles has a mass median aerodynamic diameter (MMAD) within a range of about 0.5 μm to about 10 μm. The respirable dry powder may contain a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, such as a phospholipid, in an amount ranging from about 0.1% (w/w) to about 10% (w/w) of the particles.

Healthcare formulations, including, inventive surfactants, Active ingredient formulated as solids, liquids, or emulsions. The present disclosure provides formulations of healthcare products, such as: prescription drugs, over the counter drugs; minerals, herbal, and/or vitamin supplements; drugs administered in hospitals, clinics, physician's office, and places of palliative care; vaccines, tissue, organ, and cell transplants and/or grafts and/or infusions; and wound care formulations including topical ointments, lotions, cleaners, wipes, bandages, and dressings. The Active may be included in the formulations as a solute, a solvent, a particle, or an oil immiscible component of the formulation. The Active may be included in tablets, capsules, tinctures, liquids, or emulsions. Inventive healthcare formulations include formulations suitable for administration orally, topically, and/or by injection.

The present invention relates to the technical field of medicine and relates to an instant release pharmaceutical preparation of an anticoagulant and a preparation method therefor. The instant release pharmaceutical preparation of an anticoagulant comprises a vicagrel compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable form thereof, the preparation is a tablet or a capsule, the vicagrel or the pharmaceutically acceptable form thereof is provided at a suitable particle size, and the D90 thereof <50 μm. With regard to the drug-containing particles obtained by the present invention, a pharmaceutical preparation formed therefrom exhibits rapid release characteristics in an in vitro dissolution test and exhibits considerable advantages in pharmacokinetics in vivo, showing a greater degree (AUC) and rate (C.sub.max) of drug absorption. Further provided by the present invention is a method for preparing an instant release pharmaceutical preparation of an anticoagulant; according to the formulation of the drug-containing particles as disclosed by the present invention, a capsule or tablet instant release preparation having excellent stability may be obtained by means of a combination of optional preparation steps.

The present invention provides, in part, formulations comprising an alkaline phosphatase. Particularly, modified-release formulations comprising an alkaline phosphatase are provided, which release a substantial amount of the alkaline phosphatase in the intestines. Therapeutic uses of the alkaline phosphatase formulations are also provided.

Dry powder formulations for inhalation containing a combination of an anticholinergic, a long-acting beta.sub.2-adrenoceptor agonist, and a corticosteroid are useful for the prevention and/or treatment of an inflammatory and/or obstructive airways disease.
