  • Patent number: 11976300
    Abstract: Disclosed is the use of a water-soluble realgar solid dispersion in the preparation of an erythroid differentiation inducer for bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells and/or bone marrow hematopoietic progenitor cells. The water-soluble realgar solid dispersion is prepared from raw materials comprising 1 part by weight of realgar, 1-20 parts by weight of a polymer, and 0-5 parts by weight of a surfactant. The water-soluble realgar solid dispersion can induce bone marrow hematopoietic stem and/or progenitor cells to be differentiated into red blood cells, promote the accumulation of red blood cells in bone marrow cells, effectively alleviate the decrease in the number of red blood cells caused by the suppression of the erythroid differentiation of bone marrow hematopoietic stem and/or progenitor cells, improve anemia caused by hematopoietic failure, and protect bone marrow cells from the killing effect.

  • Patent number: 11938222
    Abstract: The present application relates to a pregabalin sustained release composition, comprising: (a) an active ingredient; (b) a matrix-forming agent; (c) a swelling agent; (d) a gelling agent; and optionally a filler. The pregabalin sustained release composition provided in the present application can rapidly swell in volume when exposed to aqueous medium until exceeding the dimeter of human gastric pyloric (13 mm). It thereby prolongs the gastric emptying time to increase the retention time of pregabalin in the stomach and enhances absorption of pregabalin in the small intestine and ascending colon. Moreover, the pregabalin sustained release composition provided herein achieves a sustained release for 24 h, which allows QD (once a day) administration, reduces administration number, and improves patient compliance.
