| 20130071477 | NEW ABUSE-RESISTANT PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION FOR THE TREATMENT OF OPIOID DEPENDENCE - There is provided pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of e.g. opioid dependency comprising microparticles of a pharmacologically-effective amount of buprenorphine, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof, in associative admixture with particles comprising a weak acid, or particles comprising weakly-acidic buffer forming materials. The composition may further comprise a disintegrant and/or particles of a pharmacologically-effective amount of naloxone, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof. The compositions are useful in the treatment of opioid dependency/addiction and/or pain. | 03-21-2013 |
| 20130017263 | GASTRIC ACID SECRETION INHIBITING COMPOSITION - An oral pharmaceutical dosage form comprises pharmacologically effective amounts of an acid-susceptible proton pump inhibitor and an H2 receptor antagonist in combination with at least on pharmacologically acceptable excipient which causes a delayed release and/or an extended release of the proton pump inhibitor. The H2 receptor antagonist is included in the dosage form in such a way that it is rapidly released after administration. This dosage form is suitable for the treatment of conditions associated with an excessive secretion of gastric acid and provides a suitable combination of a rapid onset and a long-lasting duration of the effect. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing such a dosage form and to a method for the treatment of conditions associated with the secretion of gastric acid. | 01-17-2013 |
| 20120315331 | PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION FOR THE TREATMENT OF ACUTE DISORDERS - A pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of acute disorders is described. The composition comprises an essentially water-free, ordered mixture of at least one pharmaceutically active agent in the form of microparticles which are adhered to the surfaces of carrier particles which are substantially larger than the particles of the active agent or agents, and are essentially water-soluble, in combination with the bioadhesion and/or mucoadhesion promoting agent. The invention also relates to a method for preparing the composition and to the use of the composition for the treatment of acute disorders. | 12-13-2012 |
| 20120315330 | PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION FOR THE TREATMENT OF ACUTE DISORDERS - A pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of acute disorders is described. The composition comprises an essentially water-free, ordered mixture of at least one pharmaceutically active agent in the form of microparticles which are adhered to the surfaces of carrier particles which are substantially larger than the particles of the active agent or agents, and are essentially water-soluble, in combination with the bioadhesion and/or mucoadhesion promoting agent. The invention also relates to a method for preparing the composition and to the use of the composition for the treatment of acute disorders. | 12-13-2012 |
| 20120277261 | PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATIONS USEFUL IN THE TREATMENT OF INSOMNIA - There is provided a formulation suitable for transmucosal administration comprising a short acting hypnotic drug, which formulation provides a measurable plasma concentration of drug within 10 minutes of administration. The formulation is capable of providing sleep on demand, and preferably comprises particles of drug, for example zolpidem or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof and a mucoadhesion promoting agent, such as sodium carboxymethylcellulose, which particles of drug and mucoadhesive are presented upon the surface of larger carrier particles. | 11-01-2012 |
| 20120121664 | Gastric Acid Secretion Inhibiting Composition - An oral pharmaceutical dosage form comprises pharmacologically effective amounts of an acid-susceptible proton pump inhibitor and an H2 receptor antagonist in combination with at least on pharmacologically acceptable excipient which causes a delayed release and/or an extended release of the proton pump inhibitor. The H2 receptor antagonist is included in the dosage for in such a way that it is rapidly released after administration. This dosage form is suitable for the treatment of conditions associated with an excessive secretion of gastric acid and provides a suitable combination of a rapid onset and a long-lasting duration of the effect. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing such a dosage form and to a method for the treatment of conditions associated with the secretion of gastric acid. | 05-17-2012 |
| 20120015007 | ABUSE RESISTANT FORMULA - There is provided a sustained-release pharmaceutical composition comprising a solid, continuous network comprising an excipient with a high mechanical strength, which network also comprises pores, within which pores is interspersed a mixture of an active ingredient and a film-forming agent, characterised in that said pores are formed during the production of the composition. Compositions of the invention find particularly utility as abuse-resistant formulations comprising opioid analgesics that may be employed in the treatment of chronic pain. | 01-19-2012 |
| 20110268796 | PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATIONS USEFUL IN THE TREATMENT OF INSOMNIA - There is provided a formulation suitable for transmucosal administration comprising a short acting hypnotic drug, which formulation provides a measurable plasma concentration of drug within 10 minutes of administration. The formulation is capable of providing sleep on demand, and preferably comprises particles of drug, for example zolpidem or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof and a mucoadhesion promoting agent, such as sodium carboxymethylcellulose, which particles of drug and mucoadhesive are presented upon the surface of larger carrier particles. | 11-03-2011 |
| 20110256229 | RAPID-ACTING PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION - A pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of acute disorders is described. The composition comprises an essentially water-free, ordered mixture of at least one pharmaceutically active agent in the form of microparticles which are adhered to the surfaces of carrier particles which are substantially larger than the particles of the active agent or agents, and are essentially insoluble or sparingly soluble in water, in combination with a bioadhesion and/or mucoadhesion promoting agent adhered to the surfaces of said carrier particles. The composition is primarily intended for sublingual or intranasal administration. The invention also relates to a method for preparing the composition and to the use of the composition for the treatment of acute disorders. | 10-20-2011 |
| 20080286368 | Pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of acute disorders - A pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of acute disorders is described. The composition comprises an essentially water-free, ordered mixture of at least one pharmaceutically active agent in the form of microparticles which are adhered to the surfaces of carrier particles which are substantially larger than the particles of the active agent or agents, and are essentially water-soluble, in combination with the bioadhesion and/or mucoadhesion promoting agent. The invention also relates to a method for preparing the composition and to the use of the composition for the treatment of acute disorders. | 11-20-2008 |
