| 20110312928 | Progesterone Containing Oral Dosage Forms and Related Methods - The present invention provides for progesterone containing pharmaceutical oral dosage forms and related methods. The oral dosage forms can each include an amount of progesterone as well as a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The oral dosage forms can be formulated to have at least one of the following characteristics: the oral dosage form produces an pregnane metabolite mean blood plasma level of less than about 1000 nmol/L; the oral dosage form produces an pregnane metabolites mean blood plasma level, after administration of single dose of progesterone composition, such that the ratio of pregnane metabolite level to parent progesterone level of less than 10:1; has a dissolution rate in vitro, when measure using a USP Type-1 dissolution apparatus in 900 mL of deionized water with 2.0% (w/v) of sodium lauryl sulfate at 100 rpm, such that the oral dosage form releases at least 10 wt % of the progesterone within the first 30 minutes and/or releases less than 45 wt % in the first 4 hours; and the oral dosage form produces a ratio of mean plasma progesterone AUC to the amount of progesterone administered of more than 1.5×10−6 hr/mL:1. | 12-22-2011 |
| 20100173882 | Steroidal Compositions - Provided herein are steroid containing compositions suitable for providing therapeutically effective amounts of at least one steroid to individuals. Also provided herein are compositions comprising testosterone and/or testosterone derivatives suitable for providing therapeutically effective and safe amounts of testosterone over periods of time. Further provided are methods of treating andro- and/or testosterone deficiency in individuals by administering to the individuals compositions described herein. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20100137271 | PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS AND DOSAGE FORMS FOR ADMINISTRATION OF HYDROPHOBIC DRUGS - Pharmaceutical compositions and dosage forms for administration of hydrophobic drugs are provided. The pharmaceutical compositions include a therapeutically effective amount of a hydrophobic drug, preferably a steroid; a solubilizer, and a surfactant. The synergistic effect between the hydrophobic drug and the solubilizer results in a pharmaceutical formulation with improved dispersion of both the active agent and the solubilizer. As a result of the improved dispersion, the pharmaceutical composition has improved bioavailability upon administration. Methods of improving the bioavailability of hydrophobic drugs administered to a patient are also provided. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20100136105 | PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS AND DOSAGE FORMS FOR ADMINISTRATION OF HYDROPHOBIC DRUGS - The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions and methods for improved solubilization of triglycerides and improved delivery of therapeutic agents. Compositions of the present invention include a carrier, where the carrier is formed from a combination of a triglyceride and at least two surfactants, at least one of which is hydrophilic. Upon dilution with an aqueous medium, the carrier forms a clear, aqueous dispersion of the triglyceride and surfactants. | 06-03-2010 |
