摘要:
A preparation for the once-daily, percutaneous administration of nicotine comprises nicotine uniformly distributed in a solid, semi-solid or mucilaginous medium which can be placed in intimate contact with the skin, the solid, semi-solid or mucilaginous medium is formed by adding a given amount of nicotine to a solution of a solidifying or gel-forming agent or mixture thereof in a suitable solvent or mixture of solvents and mixing or heating the mixture thereby obtained so as to form the solid, semi-solid or mucilaginous medium. The preparation can be used in a method of treating withdrawal symptoms associated with smoking cessation and for combating the psychological dependence that occurs through frequent smoking.
摘要:
A controlled absorption diltiazem pellet formulation for oral administration comprises a core of diltiazem or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in association with an organic acid, and a multi-layer membrane surrounding the core and containing a major proportion of a pharmaceutically acceptable film-forming water insoluble synthetic polymer and optionally a minor proportion of a pharmaceutically acceptable film-forming, water soluble synthetic polymer. The number of layers in the membrane and the ratio of the water soluble to water insoluble polymer, when said water soluble polymer is present, being effective to permit release of diltiazem from the pellet at a rate allowing controlled absorption thereof over not less than a twelve hour period following oral administration. The pellet has a dissolution rate in vitro which when measured in a dissolution apparatus (paddle) according to U.S. Pharmacopoeia XXI in 0.05 M KCl at pH 7.0 results in not more than 35% of the total diltiazem being released after 2 hours of measurement. Not more than 60% of the total diltiazem is released after four hours of measurement and 100% of the diltiazem is released no earlier than after 8 hours of measurement in said apparatus.

A diltiazem pellet formulation for oral administration comprises a core of diltiazem or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in association with an organic acid and a lubricant, and a membrane surrounding the core comprising a multiplicity of sequentially applied and dried layers, each layer containing a major proportion of a pharmaceutically acceptable film-forming, water insoluble, naturally occurring polymer and a minor proportion of a pharmaceutically acceptable film-forming, water soluble polymer. The number of layers in the membrane and the ratio of the water soluble to water insoluble polymer being effective to permit release of the diltiazem from the pellet at a rate allowing controlled absorption thereof over a twelve hour period following oral administration.

A controlled absorption quinidine formulation for oral administration comprises a pellet having a core of quinidine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in association with an organic acid and optionally other excipients, and an outer membrane which permits release of quinidine in an aqueous medium at a controlled rate which is substantially pH independent. The pellet has a dissolution rate in vitro, which when measured in a Basket Assembly according to U.S. Pharmacopoeia XXI at 37.degree. C. and 75 r.p.m. is not more than 15% after one hour of measurement. Not more than 50% of the total quinidine is release after a total of 4 hours of measurement, not more than 80% is released after a total of 8 hours of measurement and not less than 90% release is achieved after a total of 24 hours.

A controlled release powder containing discrete micro-particles for use in edible, pharmaceutical and other controlled release compositions is disclosed. The micro-particles have an average size in the range of from 0.1 to 125 .mu.m. Each of the micro-particles is in the form of a micromatrix of an active ingredient uniformly distributed in at least one non-toxic polymer. The micro-particles have a predetermined release of active ingedient when the dissolution rate thereof is measured according to the Paddle Method of U.S. Pharmacopoeia XX at 37.degree. C. and 75 r.p.m.

The pellet has a dissolution rate in vitro, which when measured according to the Paddle Method of U.S. Pharmacopoeia XX, is not more than 10% of the total diltiazem after 2 hours of measurement in a buffered medium. Not more than 30% of the total diltiazem is released after a total of 4 hours measurement and not more than 40% of the total diltiazem is released after a total of 6 hours. 100% release is achieved after 12 hours, with a maximum of 80% of the total diltiazem being released after 8 hours.
