Provided is an orally disintegrating tablet film-coated with a composition for film coating containing hypromellose and hydroxypropyl cellulose but not containing a plasticizer.

Aspects of the present invention are directed to an oral dosage form comprising a core containing one more active ingredients and a fast-release exterior coating. The fast release exterior coating includes a water soluble polymer; a saccharide or sugar alcohol, or a combination thereof, and a flavoring. The flavoring may be a warming sensate that is released in the oral cavity of the user after inserting the dosage form in his or her mouth.

A pharmaceutical composition containing nitroxoline for the treatment of bladder cancer, a nitroxoline oral solid tablet, a preparation method therefor and use thereof. The pharmaceutical composition comprises nitroxoline, a filler, a disintegrating agent, a binder, and a lubricant. The lubricant is selected from one or two of sodium dodecyl sulfate and sodium stearyl fumarate. The pharmaceutical composition has a moderate dissolution rate, can avoid the burst release phenomenon, is moisture-proof and impermeable, has good stability, is secure and effective, is convenient to take, has strong patient compliance, and meets the requirements of being an oral solid tablet. The preparation method has stable production process, good reproducibility, easy mass production, and good clinical use value and social benefits.

The instant application relates to the field of pharmaceutical compositions comprising dasatinb. Furthermore, the instant application relates to a method of treating proliferative disorders in a patient in need thereof, comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of said compositions.

The instant invention relates to new film-forming compositions based on starchy material, comprising isosorbide. The instant invention also relates to products made from the film-forming compositions of the invention, in particular hard and soft capsules shells, and to methods for the manufacture of such products.

An object of the present invention is to provide a particulate composition for an easy-to-take solid preparation, which has excellent moldability (hardness) and slipperiness. The present invention relates to a particulate composition for an easy-to-take solid preparation, comprising sugar alcohol and a gelling agent that will show slipperiness when it is brought into contact with water, wherein a part or whole of the surface of the particulate composition is coated with the gelling agent, to an easy-to-take solid preparation comprising the particulate composition, and to a method for the production of the easy-to-take solid preparation.

α-amino boronic acid derivatives are useful for inhibiting the activity of immunoproteasome (LMP7) and for the treatment and/or prevention of medical conditions affected by immunoproteasome activity such as inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, proliferative diseases and cancer.

Described are sustained-release solid dosage forms of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) or aminosterol compositions. In one aspect of the invention the sustained-release solid dosage forms of EGCG or an aminosterol are capsules comprising a plurality of coated solid particulates. Another aspect of the invention relates to methods of inhibiting, ameliorating, reducing the likelihood of, delaying the onset of, treating or preventing an amyloid disorder, comprising the step of administering to a subject in need a therapeutically effective amount of the solid dosage form. In certain aspects, the amyloid disorder is Parkinson's Disease.

Compositions and methods to avoid the gag reflex to enable swallowing of pills, by applying an edible coating to the pill that generates bubbles, so that the bubbles prevent direct contact of the pill with the back of the mouth, thereby avoiding the gag reflex. Preferably the coating generates bubbles from an acid-base reaction, from compressed bubbles entrapped in hard candy, or from any other manner for creating fizzing, effervescent or popping confectionary or other food products. Optionally the coating can have a strong taste, such as by being sour, to distract away from the gag reflex. Optionally, a time release envelope is provided to delay bubbling or to block atmospheric humidity.

The invention relates to a time controlled, immediate release drug delivery system for oral administration of a first active ingredient to a subject in need thereof. The invention additionally relates to a dual drug delivery device, comprising the time controlled, immediate release drug delivery system according to the invention, further comprising a second coating comprising a second active ingredient.
