Described herein are synthetic progestogens, such as 6β,7β:15β,16β-Dimethylene-3-oxo-17α-pregn-4-ene-21,17-carbolactone, as well as pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same. Also described are methods of use.

There is provided a pharmaceutical composition comprising lemborexant exhibiting a favorable dissolution profile by using a granular material having a 90% cumulative diameter (D90) of 64 μm or less as a lemborexant active pharmaceutical ingredient.

The present invention chiefly aims to provide a new API particle in which a metal or the like is coated on the API itself of a pharmaceutical solid dosage form.

The present invention includes, for example, a coated API particle, wherein the surface of an API particle is coated with a metal or a metal oxide (e.g., iron oxide) by sputter deposition, and a process for manufacturing a pharmaceutical solid dosage form (e.g., tablet) using the coated API particles.

According to the present invention, for example, it is possible to improve the photostability of an API itself or of pharmaceutical solid dosage forms produced with the API.

What is described herein relates to a method for generating micro-particles comprising the steps of a) providing a homogenous supersaturated solution of a substance in a crystallization medium b) providing a seeding material characterized by a nano-particle size of a d50 between 10 nm and 999 nm comprising at least one stabilizer, wherein said seeding material is of the same substance as the substance of the homogenous supersaturated solution of step a) c) bringing the homogenous supersaturated solution in contact with the seeding material,
optionally isolating micro-particles.

A formulation of naltrexone that ameliorates undesirable localized reactions at the site of implantation.

Disclosed herein are methods for treating epithelial cysts, including pancreatic cysts, in a subject by intracystic injection of compositions comprising antineoplastic particles, including taxane particles such as paclitaxel particles and docetaxel particles.

The present invention relates to a process for spray drying of a feed solution comprising the GLP-1 peptide semaglutide wherein the ratio of atomising gas flow (kg/h) to feed solution flow (kg/h) is 1.0-1.7.

The present invention provides a method for preparing an additive-free cell-wall-broken granule of a Chinese medicinal material. The cell-wall-broken granule is obtained by medicinal material concocting and grinding, first cell-wall-breaking and grinding, screening, second wall-breaking and grinding, mixing, pelleting, and granulating and sieving. The obtained granule has a moderate tightness, a relatively rapid dissolution and diffusion and a good uniformity, overcoming problems of a difficulty of dissolution and diffusion and a poor uniformity of the existing cell-wall-broken granules.

The present invention relates to micronised pharmaceutical products of crystalline opicapone with a percentage number of sheaf agglomerates less than or equal to 30%. The invention also relates to methods of production of these micronised pharmaceutical products and their use in improving bioavailability of opicapone in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Furthermore, the invention provides methods for calculating the primary particle size distribution and agglomerate content of such products.

Disclosed herein are topical formulations of cannabidiol, such as nanoparticulate cannabidiol, methods of making such compositions, and their use in treating autoimmune diseases and disorders, e.g., alopecia areata.
