A dosage form of lacosamide and a pharmaceutical dosage form thereof is disclosed. The dosage form includes an extended release portion and optionally an immediate release portion. Also provided are methods of providing extended release of lacosamide and treatment of a neurological or psychiatric disease or condition.

Microparticles containing a core of therapeutic protein and a cortex of a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer, and methods of making and using the microparticles are provided. The extended release of a therapeutic protein from the microparticles in a physiological solution is demonstrated over an extended period of time.

Disclosed are compositions comprising amantadine, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and one or more excipients, wherein at least one of the excipients modifies release of amantadine. Methods of administering the same are also provided.

The present invention relates to the field of pharmacy, particularly to a pharmaceutical composition for oral administration comprising an (a) inert substrate and a (b) mixture comprising a non-bile acid farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonist, such as 2-[(1R,3r,5S)-3-({5-cyclopropyl-3-[2-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1,2-oxazol-4-yl}methoxy)-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-8-yl]-4-fluoro-1,3-benzothiazole-6-carboxylic acid, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and at least one binder. The present invention also relates to a process for preparing said pharmaceutical composition for oral administration; and to the use of said pharmaceutical composition in the manufacture of a medicament.

This disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising atomoxetine, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of atomoxetine, or a combination thereof, that can be administered to a human subject in need thereof. The disclosure also provides pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of orthostatic hypotension.

The present disclosure provides extended release trihexyphenidyl compositions suitable for once- or twice-daily administration. The compositions comprise a core comprising at least one organic acid; at least one drug layer comprising trihexyphenidyl or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof over the core; and a functional coat over the drug-layered core. The compositions of the disclosure provide extended release with reduced C.sub.max, a C.sub.min:C.sub.max ratio of ≥0.4, Fluctuation Index of ≤1, while providing and maintaining at least a minimum therapeutically effective plasma concentration, of the trihexyphenidyl or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof for at least about 10 hours. The compositions of the disclosure improve solubility of the trihexyphenidyl or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof at a pH of greater than or equal to 5, to provide and maintain at least a minimum effective concentration of the drug at such pH.

A process is provided for microencapsulating nicotinamide riboside (NR), and other NR derivatives by using ethyl cellulose which may be polymerized in a particular manner. Further, compositions comprising NR or derivatives thereof microencapsulated in an edible biopolymer are provided.

The present disclosure relates to a process for preparing arimoclomol, arimoclomol citrate and key intermediates, such as ORZY-01, thereof. The disclosure further relates to a process for preparing high purity arimoclomol citrate and methods of using the same.

Pharmaceutical granulations having a functional coating surrounding a core containing a water-soluble active pharmaceutical ingredient are disclosed. The functional coating provides for immediate release or controlled release of the active pharmaceutical ingredient. The pharmaceutical granulations can be used in oral pharmaceutical compositions.

An abuse resistant oral pharmaceutical composition, comprising: a barrier layer, comprising a first polymer; a diffusion layer, comprising a second polymer, substantially covering the barrier layer, wherein the diffusion layer is bonded to the barrier layer and comprises a drug that is substantially homogeneously distributed within the second polymer and diffuses from the diffusion layer within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract; and optionally an expansion layer comprising an expandable polymer, wherein the expansion layer is substantially covered by the barrier layer. Methods of making the same and methods of using the same are also provided.
