  • Publication number: 20110236439
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an immediate release solid oral dosage form containing 1-aminocyclohexanes, preferably memantine or neramexane, and optionally a pharmaceutically acceptable coating, wherein the active ingredient exhibits dose proportionality and is released at a dissolution rate of more than about 80% within about the first 60 minutes following entry of said form into a use environment. The dosage form is direct compressed and has a hardness within the range of between about 3 and about 40 Kp, exhibits an average Tmax within the range of about 2 to about 8 hours with an active ingredient load within the range of about 2.5 to about 150 mg. The formulation allows for dose-proportional compositions for once daily or b.i.d. dosing, while maintaining a steady average range of Tmax.

  • Publication number: 20100035995
    Abstract: The invention is directed to formulations of pharmaceutical compounds, such as the Cyclohexylamines and Aminoadamantanes which have antimicrobial properties. In particular, it is directed to aqueous based formulations with reduced amounts of preservatives which allow safe and convenient administration and flexible dosing and which, in the case of oral formulations, are easy to swallow. Optionally, the compositions contain components that provide the requisite stability and shelf life while reducing or avoiding incrustation of the composition around the container closure which leads to leaks and difficulty in opening the container.

  • Publication number: 20070141148
    Abstract: The invention provides novel oral modified release dosage forms of neramexane which are useful for the continuous therapy of patients suffering from diseases and conditions such as Alzheimer's dementia and neuropathic pain. The compositions have drug release profiles that are suitable for achieving steady state plasma concentrations of neramexane which have relatively small fluctuation when administered on a twice-daily or even once-daily regimen. The dosage forms may be designed as modified release matrix tablets, which are optionally coated for taste masking. The invention further provides therapeutic methods of treating conditions such as Alzheimer's dementia and neuropathic pain which involve the administration of such dosage forms.
