Abstract:
A three-drug antiretrovial pharmaceutical composition having a selective combination of a controlled release active formulation and an immediate release active formulation for once daily administration. The composition provides desired dosages of the actives lamivudine, zidovudine or pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof, and the immediate release formulation including at least one selective Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor (NNRTI), preferably nevirapine or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof along with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The once daily composition would favour patient compliance and effective treatment. A method of reducing the pill burden in a patient suffering from HIV infection and/or Acquired Immunodeffieciency Syndrome by administering a once daily dose of the three-drug antiretroviral pharmaceutical composition.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a biodegradable microparticle composition useful for the target specific drug delivery to manage pulmonary tuberculosis, said composition comprising two anti-tuberculosis drugs, and a biodegradable polymer for drug delivery in a ratio of about 1:2 to 2: 1, wherein the anti-tubercular drugs are in the ratio of 1:2 to 2:1, also, a process for the preparation of the composition, and lastly, a method of treating pulmonary tuberculosis in a subject, said method comprising administering by inhalation alone or in combination with oral route, pharmaceutically effective amount of the composition to the subject in need thereof, wherein the dosage for inhalation is ranging between 0.5 to 10 mg/kg body weight/day and that for oral route is ranging between 4 to 32 mg/kg body weight/day.
