A granular preparation comprising first granules containing (A) edoxaban or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof, (B) a sugar alcohol, and (C) a water-swelling additive, and second granules containing (D) 0.5 to 10% by weight of carmellose sodium with respect to the total weight of the preparation, and (E) 70 to 90% by weight of xylitol or sorbitol with respect to the total weight of the preparation.

A pharmaceutical composition comprising Compound 1, (3-(6-(1-(2,2-difluorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl) cyclopropanecarboxamido)-3-methylpyridin-2-yl)benzoic acid), and at least one excipient selected from: a filler, a disintegrant, a surfactant, a binder, and a lubricant, the composition being suitable for oral administration to a patient in need thereof to treat a CFTR mediated disease such as Cystic Fibrosis. Processes of preparing pharmaceutical compositions comprising Compound 1 are also disclosed.

A particulate material comprising porous polymeric particles is described. The porous polymeric particles have an average pore diameter of from 2 to 50 nm and a volume mean particle diameter D[4,3] of less than 100 μm. The material is obtained or obtainable by spray-drying a polymer solution. The particles find use as a solubility-enhancing carrier for active pharmaceutical compounds. Methods of manufacturing the particulate material and pharmaceutical compositions including the particulate material loaded with one or more active pharmaceutical compounds are also described.

An oseltamivir formulation and a preparation method of the formulation, the method being simple to operate, having good reproducibility, and being suitable for manufacture. The oseltamivir formulation includes oseltamivir or a salt thereof and a sustained-release material. The formulation may be a single-phase release formulation, a dual-phase release formulation, a three-phase release formulation, or a multi-phase release formulation having more than three phases. The formulation is administered once-daily and can achieve sustained release of at least 24 hours or longer, which can reduce the times of administration and avoid peak-to-valley fluctuations, thereby improving the compliance and safety of patients.

The present invention relates to a controlled release injectable ondansetron formulation comprising ondansetron or pharmaceutically acceptable salt, derivative or metabolite thereof which releases ondansetron over a period of at least 2 days period from the date of administration and the process for preparation thereof.

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical formulation comprising at least one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) having low aqueous solubility or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in the form of particles of a size between 1 and 800 nm, wherein said particles are encapsulated within a large microparticle of a size between 1 and 100 .Math.m formed by a matrix comprising at least an excipient. Therefore, the API is entrapped or encapsulated in the microparticles of excipients. This pharmaceutical formulation contains the pharmaceutical active ingredient having improved solubility and subsequently supra-bioavailability.

The present disclosure relates to the field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and particularly to a compound represented by Formula (I), a preparation method and medical use thereof. In the compound represented by Formula (I), a lactulosyl group is connected to a heteroatom of genin (G) via a glycosidic bond, wherein the genin (G) is a group formed by removing one hydrogen atom from a heteroatom of an active pharmaceutical molecule, and “” indicates that the lactulosyl group is connected to the heteroatom of the genin (G) via an α-glycosidic bond or a β-glycosidic bond. Pharmacokinetic experiments prove that the lactuloside compound according to the present disclosure can pass through the gastrointestinal tract of a mammal without being absorbed significantly by the gastrointestinal tract and hydrolyzed significantly by endogenous enzymes of a mammal host. Therefore, the lactuloside compound can arrive at the colon site of the mammal, and release an active drug in the colon under the action of colon flora. The lactuloside compound has a function of colon-localized drug release, and can be used for preventing or treating an intestinal disease. ##STR00001##
