IMMEDIATE RELEASE MULTILAYER TABLET
Described herein, in part, are tablets, such as immediate release multi-layer or bilayer tablets for orally delivering olanzapine and samidorphan, methods of using said tablets in the treatment of disorders described herein, and kits comprising said tablets.
PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING MELOXICAM
Disclosed herein are compositions comprising an NSAID such as meloxicam and/or rizatriptan in combination with a cyclodextrin and/or a carbonate or a bicarbonate. These compositions may be orally administered, for example, to improve the bioavailability or pharmacokinetics of the NSAID for the treatment of pain such as migraine, arthritis, and other conditions. Also disclosed herein are methods of treating pain, such as migraine, comprising administering meloxicam and rizatriptan to a human being suffering from pain, such as migraine. For migraine, these methods may be particularly useful when the meloxicam and rizatriptan are administered while the human being is suffering from an acute attack of migraine pain or migraine aura. In some embodiments, the combination of meloxicam and rizatriptan may be administered in a manner that results in a T.sub.max of meloxicam of 3 hours or less.
PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATION CONTAINING A PSYCHEDELIC SUBSTANCE OBTAINED BY SELECTIVE LASER SINTERING (SLS) 3D PRINTING
The present invention discloses solid oromucosal pharmaceutical formulations containing a psychedelic selected from psilocybin, psilocin, or mescaline and/or an analog thereof as an active ingredient, a method of preparation of the pharmaceutical form by Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) 3D printing, and treatment of neurological and/or psychiatric disorders, as well as inflammatory disorders.
Pharmaceutical compositions
An oral or injectable pharmaceutical composition is provided for treating diseases caused by retroviruses or hepatitis B viruses. The composition comprises a therapeutically effective amount of at least one anti-retroviral drug and a therapeutically effective amount of at least one pharmacokinetic booster or enhancer or derivative thereof. Methods and kits are also provided.
Bilayer adhering lozenge effective to mask undesirable flavor
An oral adhering lozenge is provided which delivers to the mouth a component with an undesirable flavor and a component for delivering a masking flavor. The oral adhering lozenge comprises a first, adherent layer and a second layer. The first, adherent layer includes a flavor-masking component, and the second layer includes both an active component and a flavor-masking component. In another configuration, the first, adherent layer includes both an active component and a flavor-masking component. In use, the second layer of the lozenge generally finishes dissolving and/or eroding in the mouth before the first layer finishes dissolving and/or eroding. The later eroding adherent layer will continue to release the flavor-masking component after all of the active component has been released into the mouth, thereby providing increased masking of any bitter aftertaste of the active.
TESOFENSINE AND BETA BLOCKER COMBINATION FORMULATIONS
The present invention relates to a controlled release formulation comprising the active compounds tesofensine and a beta blocker, such as metoprolol or carvedilol, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The invention further relates to use of the controlled release formulation in a method of treatment of diabetes, obesity, or an obesity associated disorder.
SOLID PREPARATION
Provided is a solid preparation comprising a controlled-release film, wherein the controlled-release film includes a dry film of an edible ink, and contains a water-insoluble polymer, and has excellent controlled-releasability of an active ingredient contained in a tablet core. The solid preparation according to the present invention comprises a tablet core, and at least one layer of a controlled-release film provided on at least a part of a surface of the tablet core, wherein the tablet core contains at least one active ingredient, and the controlled-release film includes a dry film of an edible ink containing at least one water insoluble polymer.
Ingestible medical delivery devices
Exemplary embodiments of the disclosure may be drawn to ingestible delivery devices. An ingestible delivery device may include a first compartment and a second compartment. A lipase may be contained within the first compartment, and a fat may be contained within the second compartment. The first compartment may be sealed from the second compartment prior to exposure to a trigger, preventing the lipase and the fat from contacting each other, and at least one of the first compartment or the second compartment may at least partially rupture upon exposure to the trigger, allowing the lipase and the fat to contact each other.
Combinations of beta-lactam compounds and probenecid and uses thereof
The present disclosure relates to bilayer tablets comprising a second layer comprising a β-lactam compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and a first layer comprising probenecid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The present disclosure also relates to methods of treating or preventing a disease using the bilayer tablets.
Dosage form comprising structural framework of two-dimensional elements
The most prevalent pharmaceutical dosage forms at present, the oral-delivery tablets, are granular solids. An inherent limitation of such granular solids for drug release applications is the unpredictability of the microstructure. As a result, the drug release rate and other properties are difficult to control, and their range is also limited. Presented herein, therefore, is a solid dosage form with predictable microstructure and properties. The dosage form includes a drug-containing solid comprising a three dimensional structural framework of one or more two-dimensional structural elements or sheets.
