Abstract: The present invention relates to a topical skin-care preparation in the form of an ointment containing mupirocin and betamethasone dipropionate as active principles and a carrier formulated with all or some of the following components: hydrogenated castor oil, polyethylene glycols and preservatives. The inventive preparation is advantageous over prior art compositions in that it has a specific therapeutic effect on primary and secondary skin infections, such as relief of pruritic inflammatory manifestations of dermatosis, a wide range of activity against the majority of bacterial species involved in skin infections, and a high level of activity against Staphylococcus and Streptococcus, including multi-resistant strains. In addition, the therapeutic effect of the preparation is not affected by the size of the inoculum and the preparation has no sensitization potential, thereby providing the product with an excellent safety profile for use by the patient.

Abstract: Disclosed is a novel polymorphic form of the compound of formula (I) also known as mutilin 14-(exo-8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-3-ylsulfanyl)-acetate, a process for the preparation of the polymorphic form, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the polymorphic form, and the use of the polymorphic form in medicine, particularly in antibacterial therapy.

Abstract: An injection molding process for the preparation of an oral delivery device comprising a core which contains a pharmaceutically active agent, having a coating with one or more openings leading to such a core. The invention also relates to devices produced by the process, and to injection molds suitable for performing the process.

Abstract: The present invention relates to dosage forms for oral administration of therapeutic formulations, adapted to provide immediate and/or sustained-release of therapeutic substances, particularly for oral administration of vitamins. There is provided a dosage form for oral administration of a vitamin, comprising: a liquid phase containing a vitamin, e.g. Vitamin C in a relatively fast release form and a solid phase suspended in the liquid phase and containing a vitamin e.g. Vitamin C in a relatively slow release form.

Abstract: Drug substance for use in a pharmaceutical formulation may be prepared by a process which process comprises co-milling a suspension of the drug substance and a pharmaceutically acceptable polymer in a liquid propellant.

Abstract: A dosage form such as a swallow tablet or a capsule formulation is described comprising paracetamol, low levels of sodium bicarbonate or potassium bicarbonate or mixtures thereof, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition comprising an immediate release phase and a sustained release phase of paracetamol is described which has a unique in vitro dissolution profile resulting in advantageous pharmacokinetic properties.

Abstract: Muscarinic Acetylcholine receptor antagonists and methods of using them are provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process using ultrasonic cutting for the preparation of an oral delivery device comprising a core which includes a pharmaceutically active agent covered by an outer coating which includes one or more openings communicating from the exterior of the device toward the core.

Abstract: Muscarinic Acetylcholine receptor antagonists and methods of using them are provided.
