摘要:
The present invention includes a dosage form configured to provide the controlled release of an active agent formulation. A dosage form according to the present invention includes a reservoir containing an active agent formulation and an engine positioned at least partially within the reservoir. In order to reduce the possibility that the engine included in a dosage form of the present invention will separate from the reservoir either during or after fabrication, the dosage form of the present invention includes a band that binds the engine to the reservoir. The band is provided over an outside surface of the both the engine and the reservoir at or near the interface formed where the engine enters the opening provided in the reservoir. The present invention also includes a method of fabricating controlled release dosage forms having banded engine.
摘要:
A sustained release dosage form includes a capsule made of a thermoplastic polymer having a softening point below 200° C. and an orifice formed or formable within the capsule, an emulsion formulation contained within the capsule, and an expandable composition within the capsule remote from the orifice. The emulsion formulation comprises a drug, an emulsifying surfactant, and an oil. The expandable composition is configured to expand and expel the emulsion formulation through the orifice.
摘要:
Controlled release of self-dispersing nanoparticle active agent formulations is provided by dispersing porous particles into which have been sorbed a self-dispersing nanoparticle active agent formulation in osmotic, push-layer dosage forms. The dosage forms may provide for continuous or pulsatile delivery of active agents.
摘要:
This invention pertains to the enhanced delivery of orally administered pharmaceutical agents and methods, dosage forms and devices thereof. In particular, the invention is directed to methods including providing a low solubility drug having a pKa between about 6 and about 9; dissolving the low solubility drug in an aqueous solution, wherein a pH of the aqueous solution is less than about 6.0; dissolving a hydrophilic polymer in the aqueous solution, wherein the weight ratio of the hydrophilic polymer to the low solubility drug is less than or equal to about 0.15; lyophilizing the aqueous solution to obtain a lyophilized powder. Also disclosed are drug formulations made according to the method, and dosage forms that include the drug formulations.
摘要:
A dosage form is disclosed comprising a semipermeable walled container that houses a capsule, which capsule comprises a drug formulation, a piston, and an osmotic composition. The dosage form delivers the drug formulation through a passageway at a controlled rate over a sustained-release period of time up to 24 hours.
