Abstract: Shelf life of soft gelatin capsules comprising a soft gelatin shell encapsulating a pharmaceutical formulation comprising cis-5,8,11,14,17-eicosapentaenoic acid (C20:5 n-3; “EPA”) in free acid form in an amount from 25 wt % to 99 wt % of the formulation and cis-7,10,13,16,19-docosapentaenoic acid (C22:5 n-3; “DPA”) in free acid form in an amount from 1 wt % to 75 wt % of the formulation in which the gelatin component of the shell is Type B gelatin, is improved by replacing up to 75 wt % of the gelatin component with porcine Type A gelatin.

Abstract: DPA-enriched pharmaceutical compositions of polyunsaturated fatty acids in free acid form, therapeutic methods for their use, and processes for refining the compositions from fish oil are presented.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical formulation comprising at least one omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid in free acid form or a pharmacologically acceptable derivative thereof is contained in a soft gelatin capsule characterised in that the capsule comprises gelatin extracted by an extraction process comprising acid pre-treatment of a collagen source. One advantage of the present invention over a soft to gelatin capsule containing the same formulation but comprising gelatin extracted by an extraction process comprising alkali pre-treatment of the collagen source is that the present invention does not harden significantly over time and thus has a longer shelf life.
