  • Publication number: 20130195935
    Abstract: A solid administration form, protected from parenteral abuse and containing at least one viscosity-increasing agent in addition to one or more active substances that have parenteral abuse potential. The agent forms, when a necessary minimum amount of an aqueous liquid is added, on the basis of an extract obtained from the administration form, a preferably injectable gel that remains visually distinct when introduced into another quantity of an aqueous liquid.

  • Publication number: 20130090349
    Abstract: A pharmaceutical dosage form for oral administration having a breaking strength of at least 300 N and comprising an opioid agonist, an opioid antagonist, and a polyalkylene oxide having an average molecular weight of at least 200,000 g/mol, wherein in accordance with Ph. Eur. the in vitro release profile of the opioid agonist essentially corresponds to the in vitro release profile of the opioid antagonist, and wherein the opioid agonist and the opioid antagonist are intimately mixed with one another and homogeneously dispersed in the polyalkylene oxide. The pharmaceutical dosage form is useful, for example, to treat pain in a patient in need of such treatment.
