Abstract: The invention encompasses wet granulation pharmaceutical compositions of aripiprazole, methods of making tablets from the compositions, and tablets of the wet granulation pharmaceutical composition.

Abstract: The invention encompasses dry compression pharmaceutical compositions of aripiprazole, methods of making tablets from the compositions, and tablets of the dry compression pharmaceutical composition.

Abstract: The present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising aliphatic amine polymers such as for example Sevelamer HCl as the active pharmaceutical ingredient, wherein the aliphatica amine polymers are spray granulated. The present invention further provides methods of preparing stable pharmaceutical compositions of aliphatic amine polymers such as for example Sevelamer HCl, preferably in tablets dosage forms.

Abstract: The invention encompasses stable pharmaceutical compositions comprising montelukast or salts thereof and methods of preparing the same.

Abstract: The present invention encompasses a method of evaluating pharmaceutical compositions of meloxicam whereby one can correlate in vitro properties to in vivo properties, and pharmaceutical compositions developed using the method.

Abstract: Provided are processes for preparation of crystalline sertraline hydrochloride Form II substantially free of other polymorphic forms of sertraline hydrochloride, preferably on an industrial scale.

Abstract: A method of packaging of azithromycin which provides improved stability of azithromycin upon storage. Additionally, compositions and methods of stabilizing azithromycin compositions are described. Stabilized azithromycin compositions comprise an intimate admixture of azithromycin and a stabilizing-effective amount of an antioxidant to improve the resistance of the azithromycin to degradation. Coprecipitation or co-milling of azithromycin and an antioxidant are particularly preferred means of achieving an intimate admixture. Pharmaceutical formulations comprising a stabilized azithromycin composition and methods of making such formulations are also described.

Abstract: A stable composition of a 2-aza-bicyclo[3.3.0]-octane-3-carboxylic acid derivative and a method for its preparation are described. The stable composition includes an intimate admixture of the derivative and a stabilizing effective amount of a lubricant. The stable composition further includes an external excipient. A method of preparing the stable composition includes forming an intimate admixture of the derivative and a lubricant and then blending the intimate admixture with at least one excipient. Preferably the final blend is transformed into solid unit dosage form.

Abstract: A method of formulating linezolid to provide a pharmaceutical composition comprising linezolid wherein the linezolid is linezolid Form IV substantially free of linezolid Form II, a solid pharmaceutical composition comprising linezolid Form IV substantially free of linezolid Form II and povidone, methods of treating a condition responsive to linezolid in a patient comprising administering to the patient a solid pharmaceutical composition comprising linezolid form IV substantially free of linezolid Form II, and methods of treating a condition responsive to linezolid in a patient comprising administering to the patient a solid pharmaceutical composition comprising linezolid form IV and povidone.

Abstract: One of the objects of the invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition in the form of a granulate, wherein the granulates comprises an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) having a poor water solubility intimately associated with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable sugar, and optionally or preferably at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient other than the at least one pharmaceutically acceptable sugar, wherein the active pharmaceutically ingredient has a water solubility less than about 20 mg/ml. The at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient other than the at least one pharmaceutically acceptable sugar is selected from the group consisting of disintegrants, wetting agents, diluents, binders, lubricants, glidants, coloring agents and flavoring agents. The at least one pharmaceutically acceptable sugar is preferably selected from pyranosyl pyranoses, such as lactose.
