Abstract: The present invention concerns an oral pharmaceutical formulation made from a microemulsion between an aqueous solution comprising at least one BCS (Biopharmaceutics Classification System) class III active principle and one oily phase comprising an oily vehicle that is self-emulsifiable on contact with water.
Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an orodispersible tablet having a hardness of 30 to 80 N, and preferably 40 to 75 N, a brittleness less than 1% and preferably less than 0.5%, disintegrating in the mouth within 60 seconds and preferably within 40 seconds, comprising an active ingredient in the form of coated microcrystals or microgranules and a mixture of excipients chosen from a group comprising a diluent, a disintegrant, a sweetener, a binder, a levelling agent, a humectant or wetting agent, a lubricant, a flavoring agent, a dye, and mixtures thereof, said mixture of excipients preferably coming in the form of grains.
Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a sustained release matrix containing at least one opioid for producing a solid oral formulation in table form suitable for reducing blood concentration fluctuations of said opioid.
Abstract: The invention relates to the use of an oral dosage form based on microgranules and/or microtablets to reduce the abusive use of at least one active principle contained therein. The aim of the invention is to prevent the diversion of an oral dosage form based on microgranules and/or microtablets containing at least one active principle capable of causing a dependency, a gelling agent, and a gelling activator. The gelling agent and the activator are only brought into contact with each other in the event of diversion by crushing. Said judiciously selected pair of excipients confers a viscosity to the formulation, such that said formulation cannot be administered by injection or does not release the active principle rapidly by forming a gel when it comes into contact with the mucous membrane if nasally administered.
Abstract: A sustained release oral pharmaceutical form suitable for single daily dose administration has a neutral microgranule coated with a mounting layer of active ingredient and pharmaceutically acceptable binder; and a coating layer of a hydrophobic coating polymer of a non-water soluble cellulose derivative, and at least 20% of inert load in relation to dry weight of hydrophobic coating polymer. The pharmaceutical form has improved resistance to rapid release of active ingredient, particularly in the presence of alcohol.
Abstract: The present invention concerns gastroretentive formulation comprising an active substance granulated with a mixture of a weak gelling agent, a strong gelling agent, and a gas generating agent and process for manufacturing said formulation.
