Abstract: The present invention provides stabilized prolonged release pharmaceutical compositions comprising atypical antipsychotic drug like paliperidone or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof without incorporating surfactant and for water penetration enhancer. Such compositions are preferably in the form of a matrix wherein one or more release controlling agents are present in and/or on the matrix. Further, such compositions comprise one or more release controlling agent and exhibits desired in vitro release of drug with or without lag period. The invention also provides a process for the preparation of such compositions.

Abstract: A novel patient-convenient, cost effective pharmaceutical composition, comprising of thiazolidinediones and biguanide for controlling hyperglycemia manufactured as multilayer tablet and its process of manufacturing, for immediate release of thiazolidinediones or thiazolidinediones and biguanide and prolonged release of the biguanide only, the tablet comprising of minimum two layers wherein one outer layer comprises of a mixture of excipients and thiazolidinediones or thiazolidinediones and biguanide allowing immediate release of thiazolidinediones or thiazolidinediones and biguanide respectively and the other layer arranged in contact with the immediate release layer which comprises of a novel composition of excipients and a minimum one or more non-biodegradable, inert polymer(s) and the biguanide allowing pH independent prolonged release of the biguanide up to a period of 8-12 hours. The tablets are for once a day dosing.

Abstract: The present invention deals with extended release pharmaceutical compositions comprising tolterodine, wherein the composition comprises: a) a drug layer comprising tolterodine tartrate, monosaccharide and/or disaccharide on an inert core; or a drug core comprising tolterodine tartrate, monosaccharide and/or disaccharide; and b) a polymer layer comprising extended release polymer(s). The invention also provides a process for the preparation of the above mentioned composition.
