Abstract: A hitherto unknown crystalline form of (?)-(1R,2R)-3-(3-dimethylamino-1-ethyl-2-methylpropyl)-phenol hydrochloride, pharmaceutical compositions containing the new crystalline form, methods of producing the new crystalline form, and a related method of use including treatment of, e.g., pain and/or urinary incontinence.

Abstract: The invention relates to 3-((hetero-)aryl)-alkyl-8-amino-2-oxo-1,3-diaza-spiro-[4.5]-decane derivatives, their preparation and their use in medicine, particularly in the treatment of pain.

Abstract: The invention relates to repeated treatment of a neuropathic condition, preferably peripheral neuropathic pain, by application of one or more high-concentration capsaicin and/or capsaicinoid topical dose units, preferably high-concentration capsaicin and/or capsaicinoid patches, to patients who previously did not respond or insufficiently responded to a previous application of one or more high-concentration capsaicin and/or capsaicinoid topical dose units, preferably high-concentration capsaicin and/or capsaicinoid patches or any other high-concentration capsaicin and/or capsaicinoid formulation previously topically administered.

Abstract: Disclosed are non-aqueous solid and liquid compositions comprising resiniferatoxin and a surfactant. The non-aqueous solid and liquid compositions may be used to prepare aqueous compositions that are used in the treatment of pain, specifically osteoarthritis-related joint pain. Moreover, also disclosed are kits containing the non-aqueous solid and liquid compositions and a diluent and methods of preparing the compositions. The non-aqueous solid and liquid compositions allow for longer storage and recovery of resiniferatoxin compared to resiniferatoxin alone prior to reconstitution with a diluent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds according to general formula (I) which act as inhibitors of NaV1.8 and can be used in the treatment of pain.

Abstract: An aqueous pharmaceutical composition containing tapentadol or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof and being adapted for oral administration. The composition has excellent storage stability without relying on the presence of high amounts of preservatives.

Abstract: A scored tablet comprises Tapentadol or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof embedded in a prolonged release matrix material; wherein the scored tablet provides prolonged release of Tapentadol or the physiologically acceptable salt thereof; wherein the scored tablet has a site of mechanical weakness along which it can be manually broken into two separate halves preferably having essentially the same size, shape and weight; and wherein the in vitro release profile of the scored tablet essentially corresponds to the in vitro release profile of each of the two separate halves. Also disclosed is a process for the preparation of such a scored tablet.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds according to general formula (I) which act as modulators of the glucocorticoid receptor and can be used in the treatment and/or prophylaxis of disorders which are at least partially mediated by the glucocorticoid receptor.
