Abstract: The present invention provides a delayed and/or controlled release formulation of paroxetine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof that is formulated to release a substantial portion of the active ingredient (e.g., paroxetine) in the large intestine of an individual in need thereof. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a controlled release paroxetine composition comprising paroxetine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in a controlled release swallow pharmaceutical formulation, that upon administration, releases the paroxetine substantially in the large intestine. For example, the controlled release paroxetine formulation may be formulated to release greater than about 50% of the paroxetine in the large intestine.

Abstract: Dronedarone formulations. Formulations of dronedarone are disclosed that provide consistent release and absorption of dronedarone that is independent of food ingestion. The disclosed formulation achieves this result through the inclusion of rate-controlling polymers, such as cellulose derivatives, acrylic polymers, and natural polymers. The dosage form may be prepared through blending, dry granulation, or wet granulation, followed by compression into a tablet.

Abstract: A storage bag made of a composite film material of two or more plys of plastic film for use in vacuum packaging fresh perishables, such as fresh cuts of meat. The film composite has a matted finish on the inside surface of its inner layer which causes the film to have a translucent appearance. The areas of the bag which are sealed together during the packaging process become transparent to provide a visual inspection for a proper seal.
