Oral drug dosage forms compromising a fixed-dose of an ADHD non-stimulant and an ADHD stimulant
The present disclosure provides oral drug dosage forms comprising: (a) an erodible non-stimulant material admixed with an ADHD non-stimulant; and (b) an erodible stimulant material admixed with an ADHD stimulant, wherein the erodible non-stimulant material admixed with the ADHD non-stimulant is embedded in a substrate material, and wherein upon exposure to gastrointestinal fluid the ADHD non-stimulant is released according to a desired non-stimulant release profile and the ADHD stimulant is released according to a desired stimulant release profile. In some embodiment, the ADHD non-stimulant is released according to a sustained release profile. In some embodiments, the ADHD stimulant is released according to an immediate release profile. The oral drug dosage forms of the present disclosure are useful for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Also provided herein are methods of designing and manufacturing the oral drug dosage forms described herein.
Apparatus and Method for 3D Printing
The invention provides a solid-dosage-form printing apparatus comprising: i) a 3D printer suitable for printing solid-dosage-forms, said 3D printer comprising an interchangeable print head selected from the group consisting of: a fused deposition modelling print head, a semi-solid extrusion print head and a direct powder extrusion print head; ii) a build platform; iii) a balance for measuring the mass of the printed solid-dosage-forms, said balance being integrated into said build platform; and optionally iv) means for performing in-line near-infra-red and/or raman spectroscopy on the solid-dosage-form product; wherein said solid-dosage-form comprises at least one active-ingredient and at least one excipient. Further provided are methods of producing solid-dosage-forms using the apparatus, including computer-implemented methods.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING QUALITY ANALYSIS FOR MULTIDIMENSIONAL PRINTING
A system for performing quality analysis for multidimensional printing. The system includes a multidimensional printer, wherein the multidimensional printer comprises a printing head, a printing surface, an axis system and a scale, wherein the scale is arranged to measure weight applied on the printing surface; and a control unit operatively coupled to the multidimensional printer. The control unit is configured to control the printing head to extrude a printing material, to produce a printed object on the printing surface, obtain, from the scale, a weight of the printed object, and store the weight of the printed object in a memory associated with the control unit, compare the weight with a reference weight of the printed object, and control the printing head to stop extrusion of the printing material when the weight is equal to or exceeds the reference weight.
Method and system for assembling sets of medical instruments and/or pharmaceutical products
A method and system for assembling sets of medical instruments and/or pharmaceutical products. The system includes a control system comprising or being connected to a database comprising data objects corresponding to available objects. An input area is provided to receive batches of unsorted medical instruments or pharmaceutical product containers, and an identification area having an identification unit. A temporary sorting area is also provided, including a plurality of storage positions provided with visual indications capable of visually indicating one of the storage position at a time, and an output area, possibly being overlapping with the input area, arranged to receive medical instruments and/or pharmaceutical products as assembled sets. The controller is arranged to receive information from the identification unit obtained when an item is arranged on the identification area, and to identify the item in the database.

Printed Delivery Device Having Supplements
Printed delivery devices are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a printed delivery device (100) includes a support substrate. A first printed composition (102), including a first supplement, is coated onto the support substrate (202) and a second printed composition (102) disposed on the first printed composition. A decorative film is applied to one or more of the first printed composition, second printed composition, or the support substrate (602).
CONTINUOUS UNLOADING AND PACKAGING SYSTEM OF PHARMACEUTICAL ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING
A high throughput, efficient, and simplified unloading and packaging systems and methods for large-scale production of pharmaceutical units (104) using additive manufacturing. The systems and methods may unload, inspect, package, and trace pharmaceutical units, produced by an additive manufacturing system (900), that are not damaged or deformed. The unloading and packaging system can include one or more unloading and packaging devices (100). The unloading and packaging device can include a modular configuration having modules. Individual modules to be arranged in any relative order, at any location, and with any number in the unloading and packaging device. The flexibility of the modular configuration allows one or more modules to be removed or added at any given time due to, e.g., expansion, downsizing, module repair, module upgrades, etc. High throughput can be achieved by operating unloading and packaging devices independently.
