摘要： An osmotic device is disclosed for delivering an agent to an environment of use. The device comprises (1) a semipermeable wall, surrounding a compartment with a passageway through the wall for delivering an agent from the compartment, and (2) an osmotic system in the compartment comprising a body formed of a polymer having depots consisting of an agent osmotic solute dispersed in the polymer and surrounded individually by a layer of the polymer. In operation, agent is delivered by the device imbibing fluid from the environment through the semipermeable wall into the compartment, with the system imbiding fluid from the compartment into the depots dissolving the solute and filling the depots with solution, thereby causing the depots to form apertures and release agent, with (a) the system delivering the agent at a controlled rate to the compartment and (b) the device delivering the agent from the compartment at a controlled rate through the passageway to the exterior of the device.

摘要： A system is disclosed for delivering an active agent to a fluid environment of use. The system comprises a microporous reservoir, an active agent housed in the reservoir, a surface that defines an exposed area of the reservoir for releasing agent from the reservoir to the environment, and a wall impermeable to both fluid and agent that surrounds the remaining, unexposed surfaces of the reservoir. In operation, when the system is in the environment with the exposed surface presented to fluid, fluid enters the system through the exposed surface causing agent to diffuse from within the system, which agent is released from the exposed surface of the system to the environment at a controlled rate over time.

摘要： An osmotic system for delivering a beneficial agent is disclosed. The system comprises a wall surrounding a compartment and has a passageway through the wall for delivering agent from the compartment. The wall is formed of a material permeable to the passage of an external fluid and impermeable to the passage of agent. The compartment contains an agent that is soluble in the fluid and exhibits an osmotic pressure gradient across the wall against the fluid, or the compartment contains an agent that has limited solubility in the fluid and exhibits a limited osmotic pressure gradient across the wall against the fluid. The compartment also contains means for increasing the amount of agent delivered from the system. The means comprises a film surrounding an osmagent with the film formed of a material permeable to fluid, impermeable to osmagent and movable from an initial to an expanded state. In operation, agent is delivered from the system through the passageway at a controlled rate by fluid being imbibed through the wall into the compartment to produce a solution or suspension containing agent, and for imbibition by the means causing it to concentrate the solution or suspension, expand and fill the compartment, whereby agent is released at a rate controlled by the permeability of the wall, the oosmotic pressure gradient across the wall, and the rate of imbibition and expansion of the means over a prolonged period of time.

摘要： An osmotic device for releasing a useful agent at different release rate patterns from the device in a selected environment is disclosed. The device is comprised of a wall surrounding and forming a compartment as a means for containing a useful agent and having a passageway for releasing the agent. The wall is comprised in at least a part of a material permeable to an external fluid and impermeable to the agent. A layer of a pattern rate controlling material that erodes in a selected environment for changing the release rate pattern of the device is carried on the semipermeable wall distant from the compartment. The agent is soluble in the fluid and exhibits an osmotic pressure gradient across the semipermeable wall against the fluid or the agent has limited solubility and is admixed with an osmotically effective solute soluble in the fluid that exhibits an osmotic pressure gradient across the semipermeable wall against the fluid. In operation, agent is released from the device at different release rate patterns by the pattern rate controlling material eroding at a controlled rate to increase the amount of fluid available to the semipermeable wall for imbibition, which fluid is imbibed through the wall into the compartment producing a solution of the soluble agent or a solution of the osmotically effective solute containing the agent which is released through the passageway to the exterior of the device at a rate controlled by the permeability of the semipermeable wall and the osmotic pressure gradient across the wall of the device.

摘要： Osmotically driven active agent dispenser for use in an aqueous environment that pumps a solution of active agent, such as a drug, at a predetermined, constant rate. The dispenser is in the form of a coated tablet comprising: a core of an osmotically effective active agent composition; and an inexpandable wall that encloses the core, has a controlled permeability to water and includes means, such as brittleness or sites of structural weakness, that is responsive to the pressure generated within the dispenser by imbibition of water from the environment by the core through the wall to form at least one, and usually many, passageways in situ in the wall through which the active agent composition in solution is pumped osmotically at a rate that is substantially dependent of the rate at which water is being imbibed into the dispenser.

摘要： The invention provides a local concentration management system (LCMS) for delivery of highly concentrated therapeutic agent formulations. The LCMS comprises a device comprising an elongate body defining a lumen between its proximal and distal ends, and a diffuser element, a dilutor element, or both. The diffuser element, which is selectively permeable to the agent, is operatively associated with the elongate body so that agent flows through the elongate body, and into and through the diffuser element to exit the system. The dilutor element can be operatively associated with the system to be in fluid communication with the elongate body lumen, a diffusion space defined by a diffuser element inner wall, or both. The dilutor element is selectively water permeable, but substantially impermeable to agent, to provide for dilution of the agent during transit through the system. The LCMS system is designed to disperse and/or dilute the drug delivery stream.
