An improved delivery particle comprising a benefit agent core material and a shell encapsulating the core material is described, along with a process for forming such a delivery particle and articles of manufacture. The shell is the reaction product of: i) an isocyanate or acid chloride or acrylate with ii) an amine-containing natural material having free amino moieties, and iii) an a, β -unsaturated compound, the a, β -unsaturated compound forming C-N covalent bonds with the amine moieties of the natural material. The delivery particle of the invention has improved release characteristics, with enhanced degradation characteristics in OECD test method 301B.

The invention relates to process for preparing cannabinoid-containing particles, wherein first a solution is provided wherein the solvent has a water solubility in the range of 2-100 g/L at 25° C. and wherein the solution comprises 1) a cannabis component comprising THC; and 2) a shell-forming component comprising one or more compounds selected from the group of C10-C30 fatty alcohols, C10-C30 fatty acids and esters of C10-C30 fatty alcohols and C10-C30 fatty acids. Then, droplets of the solution are generated in an aqueous medium and the solvent is allowed to migrate from the droplets to the aqueous medium to thereby form solid particles wherein a shell of shell-forming component encapsulates the cannabis component.

Silica microcapsules, each of which includes a shell, and a core containing one or more organic compounds inside the shell, a softener composition containing the silica microcapsules, and a method of producing the silica microcapsules is described. In the silica microcapsules, the shell contains silica as a constituent component, and the organic compound contains a primary alcohol.

The presently disclosed subject matter relates to a composition and method of using the composition for oral delivery of a bioactive agent to a subject. More particularly, the presently disclosed subject matter relates to a composition comprising an effective amount of at least one bioactive agent layered over a substrate and a method of reducing zoonotic infectious disease by administering the composition to a subject. The presently disclosed subject matter further relates to a method of preparing the composition.

The present invention relates to a buccal delivery dosage form and its use for administration of a therapeutic gas for buccal mucosal absorption of the therapeutic gas in the mouth of a subject. The buccal delivery dosage form comprises at least one crystallized excipient and at least one therapeutic gas entrapped within the crystallized excipient.

Described herein are nasal pharmaceutical compositions comprising a porous excipient and an active agent, wherein the active agent is loaded onto a surface of the porous excipient located inside pores of the porous excipient, and wherein the composition is adapted for nasal administration. Also described herein are methods of making and using nasal pharmaceutical compositions.

The present invention relates to compositions comprising thymol for use in the preventive and/or curative treatment of inflammatory or functional diseases of the intestinal tract and related symptoms in human subjects, or monogastric animals, or poultry or fish by modulating the receptors and/or enzymes of the endocannabinoid system.

The present invention provides stable, dry powder messenger RNA formulations for therapeutic use, and methods of making and using the same.

The present patent application relates a process for the production of compressed tablets using specific coated particles, wherein the coating (system) comprises at least one wax and/or at least one fat. Furthermore it relates to compressed (compacted) tablets and as well as to specific coated particles.

A method for effecting weight loss by administering a combination of topiramate and phentermine is provided. The phentermine is generally administered in immediate release form, in a daily dose in the range of 2 mg to 8 mg, in combination with a daily dose of topiramate selected to prevent the loss of effectiveness of phentermine alone. Methods for treating obesity, conditions associated with obesity, and other indications are also provided, as are compositions and dosage forms containing low doses of phentermine and topiramate, e.g., 3.75 mg phentermine and 23 mg topiramate.
