Abstract: Delivery of a drug is controlled to impart a delay before release after administration by formulating the drug with a disruption agent to provide a core, and coating the core with a regulatory membrane comprising a water-soluble gel-forming polymer and a water-insoluble film-forming polymer.

Abstract: Opioid controlled release formulation resistant to alcohol extraction of the opioid.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing a controlled release pharmaceutical extrudate using a melt extruder, wherein the melt extruder comprises a die-head supporting a die-plate in which orifices are located, and a cutter adjacent to the die-head, and wherein the cutter cuts the extruded mix as it emerges under pressure and still molten or softened from the orifices of the die-plate.

Abstract: Opioid controlled release formulation resistant to alcohol extraction of the opioid.

Abstract: The present invention relates to storage stable prolonged release pharmaceutical dosage forms comprising oxycodone or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and naloxone or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, the manufacture thereof as well as their use for administration to human beings.

Abstract: A neutral poly(ethyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate) copolymer is employed as a carrier in the manufacture of pharmaceutical formulations containing an active ingredient. The formulations are preferably made by melt extrusion, and can have rubbery characteristics and can exhibit tamper resistance.

Abstract: A solid, oral, controlled release pharmaceutical dosage form comprising a pharmaceutically active ingredient having a solubility in water of greater than 1 gm in 250 ml water at 25° C., the active ingredient dispersed in a matrix wherein the dosage form provides, as tested by the Ph. Eur. Basket method at 100 rpm 900 ml aqueous buffer (pH 6.5) containing 0.05% w/w Polysorbate 80 at 37° C., an essentially zero order rate of release of the pharmaceutically active ingredient over a period of 8 hours, the amount of pharmaceutically active ingredient released over eight hours being in the range of 15% to 45%, and when tested in a group of at least five healthy humans the median tmax, based on blood sampling at half hourly intervals, is in the range of from about 2.5 to about 6 hours, and the ratio of mean Cmax to the mean plasma level at 24 hours is in the range of about 1.5 to about 3.5.
