| 20110182807 | Method and Dosage Form to Confirm Compliant Use of a Bioactive Agent - A dosage form includes a dose of at least one bioactive agent and a substance that can be readily confirmed by medical personnel to determine if the patient is compliant with taking the dosage form. The substance is at least one member selected from the group consisting of (a) a material incorporated in the dose in a manner that when the dosage form is properly administered is by itself or when combined with a reagent visible in the buccal, vaginal, nasal, rectal, aural, ophthalmic or ostomic cavity of a patient or an excretion of a patient in normal light or when exposed to a special frequency light source, (b) a material that is by itself not readily visible in the buccal, vaginal, nasal, rectal, aural, ophthalmic or ostomic cavity of a patient or an excretion of a patient in normal light but by itself or when combined with a reagent is readily visible when exposed to a special frequency light source, (c) a material that is by itself not readily visible in the buccal, vaginal, nasal, rectal, aural, ophthalmic or ostomic cavity of a patient or an excretion of a patient in normal light but when combined with a reagent is readily visible in normal light and (d) a material that is by itself not readily visible in the buccal, vaginal, nasal, rectal, aural, ophthalmic or ostomic cavity of a patient or an excretion of a patient in normal light but by itself or when combined with a reagent is readily detected by a non-visual detection method. | 07-28-2011 |
| 20110182824 | METHOD AND DOSAGE FORM TO CONFIRM COMPLIANT USE OF A BIOACTIVE AGENT - A dosage form includes a dose of at least one bioactive agent and a substance that is visible to a normal light or to a special light source in the buccal, nasal, vaginal, rectal or ostomic cavity of a patient in order for medical personnel to determine if the patient is being compliant with taking medication or that a person is not truthful in denial of taking medication. The substance is either coating the at least one bioactive agent or intermixed with the at least one bioactive agent in a delivering body, and leaves behind a stain in the cavity for a predetermined period for compliance/abuse assessment. | 07-28-2011 |

| 20100221309 | FILM COMPOSITIONS FOR DELIVERY OF ACTIVES - The invention relates to the film products and methods of their preparation that demonstrate a non-self-aggregating uniform heterogeneity. Desirably, the films disintegrate in water and may be formed by a controlled drying process, or other process that maintains the required uniformity of the film. Desirably, the films contain at least one active agent, which may be administered to a user topically, transmucosally, vaginally, ocularly, aurally, nasally, transdermally or orally. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20100242978 | SMOKELESS TOBACCO PRODUCT - A nonaqueous, extrudable composition includes at least one thermoplastic polymer in an amount of more than 20 wt % of the whole composition and tobacco. A smokeless tobacco product in the form of a sheet can be made by extruding or hot melt shaping a nonaqueous composition comprising at least one thermoplastic polymer and tobacco, the sheet being soluble in a user's mouth and resulting in sustained release of nicotine to the user. The sheet can be in a form that may be placed in the buccal cavity of, on the palate of or sublingually in the user, and have an average dissolution time of 5 to 50 minutes for delivering super bioavailable nicotine to the user. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100247612 | EXTRUDABLE AND EXTRUDED COMPOSITIONS FOR DELIVERY OF BIOACTIVE AGENTS, METHOD OF MAKING SAME AND METHOD OF USING SAME - A nonaqueous, extrudable composition includes at least one thermoplastic polymer in an amount of more than 20 wt % of the whole composition and tobacco. An extruded bioactive product in the form of a sheet can be made by extruding or hot melt shaping a nonaqueous composition comprising at least one thermoplastic polymer and a bioactive agent, the sheet being soluble in a user's mouth and resulting in sustained release of bioactive to the user. The sheet can be in a form that may be placed in contact with the mucosa of the user, and have an average dissolution time of 5 to 50 minutes for delivering the bioactive to the user. | 09-30-2010 |
