摘要:
The present invention is directed to controlled-release (CR) oral pharmaceutical dosage forms of 5,8,14-triazatetracyclo[10.3.1.02,11.04,9]-hexadeca-2(11),3,5,7,9-pentaene, 1, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and methods of using them to reduce nicotine addiction or aiding in the cessation or lessening of tobacco use while reducing nausea as an adverse effect. The present invention also relates to an immediate-release (IR) low dosage composition having a stable formulation with uniform drug distribution and potency.
摘要:
A controlled release dosage form for sertraline has a core comprising a sertraline-containing composition and a water-swellable composition wherein the water-swellable composition is in a separate region within the core. A coating around the core is water-permeable, water-insoluble, and has at least one delivery port therethrough. In one embodiment, the dosage form releases sertraline to the use environment at an average rate of 6 to 10 wt % per hour from the second to the twenth hour after introduction to a use environment and less than about 25 wt % for the first two hours and at least 70 wt % by the twelfth hour, where the percentages correspond to the mass of drug released from the tablet divided by the total mass of drug originally present in the tablet. In another embodiment, the dosage form releases less than about 25 wt % of sertraline to the use environment by the second hour after introduction of the dosage form to the use environment, and delivers at least 25 wt % from the eighth to the twenty-fourth hour.
摘要:
The present invention provides an osmotic dosage form comprising a core containing at least one pharmaceutically active ingredient and which also comprises at least one asymmetric membrane coating wherein said coating comprises one or more substantially water-insoluble polymers, and, one or more solid, water-soluble polymeric materials that do not generate significant amounts of hydrogen peroxide or formaldehyde in long term storage.

An infra-red sensitive acid-generating medium comprises a binder, an iodonium salt; and a squarylium dye capable of absorbing infra-red radiation having a wavelength within the range of about 700 to about 1200 nm, the dye having a squarylium ring the 1- and 3-positions of which are each connected, via a single sp.sup.2 carbon atom, to a pyrylium, thiopyrylium, benzpyrylium or benzthiopyrylium nucleus, at least one of the sp.sup.2 carbon atoms having a hydrogen atom attached thereto, and the 2-position of the squarylium ring bearing an O.sup.-, amino or substituted amino, or sulfonamido group.
摘要:
An imaging medium comprises a layer, depolymerizable by exposure to actinic radiation and substantially non-tacky prior to depolymerization but becoming tacky upon at least partial depolymerization, disposed adjacent a layer of an imaging material, which has a cohesive strength greater than the adhesive strength between the imaging material and the depolymerizable layer prior to depolymerization. This medium is imagewise exposed to radiation, thereby causing at least partial depolymerization of the polymer in the exposed areas, so rendering these exposed areas tacky and firmly attaching exposed areas of the imaging material layer to the depolymerizable layer. The unexposed areas of the imaging material are then removed from the depolymerizable layer.

There are described a diffusion transfer photographic film unit of the type wherein an image-receiving element is designed to be separated from a photosensitive element after photoexposure and processing and a photographic process which utilizes the film unit. The photographic film unit comprises a photosensitive element including a support carrying at least one silver halide emulsion, an image-receiving element comprising a support, an image-receiving layer and, optionally, an overcoat layer and/or a strip-coat layer. At least one of the image-receiving layer, overcoat layer or strip-coat layer includes a "crosslinkable material" which is crosslinked during processing. The film unit further includes means for providing an aqueous alkaline processing composition to the photosensitive element and the image-receiving element for developing an image. The aqueous alkaline processing composition includes a borate compound for crosslinking the crosslinkable material of the image-receiving element during processing.
摘要:
Certain squaric acid derivatives are useful for the thermochemical generation of acid. The squaric acid derivatives may be used in imaging media in conjunction with acid-sensitive materials which undergo a color change when contacted by the acid generated from the squaric acid derivatives. Preferably, the acid-sensitive materials undergo an irreversible color change, so that the image can be fixed by neutralizing all the acid generated with excess base, thereby preventing further color change in the image during long term storage.
