Abstract: A multi-part kit for administering at least one active pharmaceutical ingredient including at least one piece of chewing gum including the active pharmaceutical ingredient, the piece of chewing gum comprising gum base; and at least one further flavor-containing formulation; wherein the gum base content of the at least one further flavor-containing formulation is less than 70% by weight of the gum base content of said piece of chewing gum.

Abstract: The invention relates to a particulate material for controlled release of active ingredients, the particulate material comprising a combination of one or more active ingredients, excluding nicotine, and an inorganic mineral filler, wherein the active ingredient is reversibly absorbed into and/or adsorbed onto the inorganic mineral filler, and wherein the BET specific surface area of the inorganic mineral filler is above 15 m2/g, the BET specific surface area measured in accordance with ISO 9277. The invention is particularly advantageous for controlled release of active ingredients.

Abstract: A particulate material for controlled release of active ingredients includes a combination of one or more active ingredients, including nicotine, and an inorganic mineral filler, in which the active ingredient is reversibly absorbed into and/or adsorbed onto the inorganic mineral filler, and the BET specific surface area of the inorganic mineral filler is above 15 m2/g, the BET specific surface area measured in accordance with ISO 9277. Further, a chewing gum having the particulate material includes a combination of one or more active ingredients, such as nicotine or a flavoring agent, and an inorganic mineral filler. Finally, the method of producing the chewing gum is provided. The invention is particularly advantageous for controlled release of active ingredients.

Abstract: A multi-part kit for administering at least one active pharmaceutical ingredient including at least one piece of chewing gum including the active pharmaceutical ingredient, the piece of chewing gum comprising gum base; and at least one further flavor-containing formulation; wherein the gum base content of the at least one further flavor-containing formulation is less than 70% by weight of the gum base content of said piece of chewing gum.

Abstract: A method of adding flavor to a chewing gum core of a chewing gum, the chewing gum including active pharmaceutical ingredients, the method of adding flavor to a chewing gum core including the steps of: providing a chewing gum core including gum base, impregnating the chewing gum core by adding at least one dose of liquid flavor mixture onto the chewing gum core prior to any optional coating of the chewing gum core, wherein at least the flavor in the liquid flavor mixture has affinity for the gum base in the chewing gum core.

Abstract: Basic fire resistant material comprised of burned or calcined sintered dolomite and organic binding means having plastic properties which can be densified at low pressures, whose shaped bodies have intermediate and final strengths in a temperature range between 300.degree. and 1600.degree. C. in which, related to the fire resistant basic materials, the proportion of binding means is 3 to 8% by weight wherein 0.1 to 2% by weight are silicon-organic compounds, and the fire resistant basic materials are from 10 to 15% by weight of particles having a particle size smaller than 45 .mu.m.
