Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of an amino sugar as plasticizer in formulations comprising a polymer as carrier for active ingredients, in particular for compositions which are intensively mixed by treatment in a melt extrusion and then formulated by suitable post-treatment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a directly shaped tablet from extrudate based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), which can be used for pharmaceutical products, and that due to its improved properties can be better easily shaped into tablets, which show anti-alcohol-induced dose dumping effect. Furthermore, this invention refers to pharmaceutical tablets composition comprising extruded polyvinyl alcohol as carrier matrix and can improve the solubility of API.
