The invention includes an apparatus and method for transdermal delivery of bupropion base. In the method of this invention, patient is administered parenterally a bupropion base in an amount effective to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and to prevent or reduce craving of nicotine in said patient. Alternatively, an effective amount of bupropion base is delivered to alleviate depression in a patient. A transdermal delivery system includes a bupropion base. The bupropion base can be mixed with an acceptable pharmaceutical carrier.
摘要:
Methods and formulations for delivering atomoxetine compounds that minimize drug metabolism and thus increase the effectiveness of the drug are disclosed. The in vivo potency of the atomoxetine compound may be maximized by minimizing the in vivo conversion of the atomoxetine compound to an atomoxetine compound metabolite.

Methods and formulations for delivering atomoxetine compounds that minimize drug metabolism and thus increase the effectiveness of the drug are disclosed. The method may include maximizing the in vivo potency of an atomoxetine compound in a subject by transdermally administering the atomoxetine compound to the subject. The in vivo potency of the atomoxetine compound may be maximized by minimizing the in vivo conversion of the atomoxetine compound to an atomoxetine compound metabolite.
摘要:
Novel pharmaceutical dosage forms provide for pulsatile delivery of an antiarrhythmic agent that releases the drug in spaced apart “pulses.” The dosage forms are comprised of first, second and optional third dosage units, with each dosage unit having a different drug release profile. The dosage forms may comprise capsules housing compressed tablets or drug-containing beads, granules, or particles or may comprise a single tablet with the first, second and optional third dosage units incorporated therein, or a “coated core” dosage form. Methods of treatment using the pharmaceutical dosage forms are provided as well.
摘要:
A kit to alleviate tobacco-smoking withdrawal symptoms in a patient is disclosed which comprises: (a) a therapeutically effective amount of nicotine, at least one active nicotine metabolite, a combination of nicotine and an active nicotine metabolite, or an azapirone, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; (b) a transdermal delivery system consisting essentially of a bupropion base in a therapeutically effective amount; and (c) a packaging material surrounding (a) and (b).

摘要:
New pharmaceutical compositions in unit dosage form are disclosed for both intraoral and oral administration to a patient, said unit dosage form configured to be placed intraorally of said patient, which comprises: (a) as a first portion, at least one discrete molded triturate tablet comprising a therapeutically effective amount of at least one pharmaceutically active ingredient capable of intraoral administration; and (b) as a second portion located around the said first portion, a therapeutically effective amount of at least one pharmaceutically active ingredient capable of oral administration and which is releasable and orally ingestible by the patient after the molded triturate tablet has disintegrated or has dissolved intraorally.
摘要:
Novel pharmaceutical dosage forms provide for pulsatile delivery of d-threo-methylphenidate and a second CNS stimulant, i.e., release encapsulated drug in spaced apart “pulses.” The second CNS stimulant may be an analeptic agent or a psychostimulant, with analeptic agents preferred. The dosage forms may comprise capsules housing compressed tablets or drug-containing beads or particles, or may comprise a tablet with the first, second and optionally third dosage units each representing an integral and discrete segment thereof. Methods of treatment using the pharmaceutical dosage forms are provided as well.
摘要:
A method of treating depression to elicit prompt relief from depression is disclosed. The method comprises the step of administering orally or non-orally to said patient, a therapeutically effective amount of l-threo-methylphenidate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
