In one aspect, the present invention is concerned with a treatment where it is desired that an active agent is designed to be released immediately following administration and again at a time point some time after administration of the active agent. The present invention is particularly suited to administering an agent which may be released before sleep and whilst a subject is sleeping. As well as treating certain conditions by a particular regime, the invention also provides novel formulations for an immediate, followed by a delayed release of drug.

The invention relates to a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof: wherein R1 is C1-8 alkyl, C1-8 alkoxy, CN, NO.sub.2, amino, COOH, COOCH.sub.3, OH, N.sub.3, or halogen and R2 is H, OH, C1-8 alkyl, C1-8 alkoxy, C2-C6 alkenyl, halogen, Bn-O—, Bn- optionally substituted, or Ph- optionally substituted.

The present invention concerns a solid, palatable composition and its preparation process which, relative to the total weight of the composition, comprises: 5 to 30%, preferably 8 to 20% by weight of at least one fat chosen from among a liquid oil, a fat, wax or mixture thereof, the liquid oil not to represent more than 8% by weight of the composition; 0.001 to 85% by weight of at least one active substance; and 20 to 95%, preferably 40 to 70% by weight of at least one palatable material,
for use thereof as medicinal product, nutraceutical or food supplement, for oral administration to mammals, except man, in particular for domestic animals such as dogs, cats or horses. The said solid composition is obtained by mixing the components, vaporising the fats, calibrating the dry, fluid granular material and compressing the granular material in a stock cube press.

Disclosed in certain embodiments is a method of treating or preventing an opioid-induced adverse pharmacodynamic response comprising administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of buprenorphine.

The present invention relates to a nutritional composition comprising at least one fucosylated oligosaccharide and at least one N-acetylated oligosaccharide, for use in preventing and/or treating constipation and/or in improving stool consistency/frequency in an infant or a young child.
