  • Publication number: 20090054481
    Abstract: A solid unit oral pharmaceutical dosage form of saquinavir mesylate is provided comprising micronized saquinavir mesylate in an amount of from 250 mg to 800 mg calculated as free base, and a pharmaceutically acceptable binder, disintegrant, and water soluble carrier. A solid unit dosage form of saquinavir mesylate is provided comprising from 60% to 80% micronized saquinavir mesylate based on the mesylate salt, 4% to 8% water soluble binder, a disintegrant and a carrier, wherein each percentage is of the kernel weight.

  • Publication number: 20080107725
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel pharmaceutical solid dosage forms for oral administration comprising a therapeutically effective amount of an unstable crystalline form or an amorphous form of a therapeutically effective compound micro-embedded into an ionic water-insoluble polymer. The therapeutically effective compounds, which have a tendency to gel, are micro-embedded into an ionic water-insoluble polymer matrix to provide a dosage form having rapid, reproducible, and complete dissolution profiles. These novel solid pharmaceutical dosage forms are useful in the treatment or control of a number of diseases. The present invention also provides a method for treating a disease comprising administering to a subject, in need thereof, a therapeutically effective amount of the novel solid pharmaceutical dosage form. The present invention further provides a method for preparing the pharmaceutical dosage forms.

  • Patent number: 6350786
    Abstract: Stable water-insoluble complexes of poorly soluble compounds molecularly dispersed in water-insoluble ionic polymers are disclosed. Useful insoluble ionic polymers have a molecular weight greater than about 80,000 D and a glass transition temperature equal to or greater than about 50°. The compounds are microprecipitated in the ionic polymers in amorphous form. The complexes according to the present invention significantly increase the bioavailability of poorly soluble therapeutically active compounds.
