Abstract: The invention relates to intravenously highly compatible imexon injection preparations and processes for their production as well as imexon lyophilisates stable in storage for the production of the injection preparations.

Abstract: The invention is directed to well-tolerated pharmaceutical compositions for oral application, containing ibandronate or a physiologically tolerable salt thereof as active substance, the administration form consisting of an active substance-containing inner portion enclosed in such fashion by a coat free of active substance that rapid release of the active substance takes place.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a rapid and readily reproducible process for stabilizing biologically active substances by combining the biologically active substance witha a stabilizingmixture and drying the resulting mixture into a dry, amorphous product by means of convection drying. The invention also relates to the amorphous, microscopically homogeneous products which are obtained by this process, are in the form of powders and have a uniform geometric, in particular spherical, shape. The invention furthermore relates to the use of substance mixtures for stabilizing biologically active material, in particular proteins by means of spray drying.

Abstract: Ready-to-use, aqueous injection solutions containing carvedilol (1-(9H-carbazolyl-4-yloxy)-3-[[(2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)ethyl]-amino]-2-propanol) or its pharmacologically harmless salts which are stable in storage and are well tolerated by veins are disclosed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a solid pharmaceutical form of administration containing a diphosphonic acid or a physiologically compatible salt thereof as the active substance, wherein the active substance is present in granulate form, optionally together with pharmaceutical adjuvants in the inner phase, and the outer phase contains a lubricant in the form of less than 5% by weight of stearic acid relative to the total weight of the form of administration.

Abstract: The present invention concerns solid instant-release forms of administration (IR form of administration) comprising therapeutic active substances or active substance concentrates in particular lipid conjugates of nucleosides which have gel-forming properties in aqueous media as well as processes for their production.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of bisphonate-containing pharmaceutical compositions for oral administration wherein the active substance is wet-granulated in a fluidized-bed granulator and the wet granulate is dried in the fluidised bed granulator. The dried granulate is further processed to produce desired dosage forms.

Abstract: The invention relates to a solid pharmaceutical form of administration containing a diphosphonic acid or a physiologically compatible salt thereof as the active substance, wherein the active substance is present in granulate form, optionally together with pharmaceutical adjuvants in the inner phase, and the outer phase contains a lubricant in the form of less than 5% by weight of stearic acid relative to the total weight of the form of administration.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a process for the production of well-tolerated, preserved injection or infusion solutions containing human protein.

Abstract: The present invention concerns pharmaceutical compositions containing metformin as an active substance and a hydrocolloid-forming agent as a retardant and optionally standard pharmaceutical auxiliary substances, the residual moisture content in the pharmaceutical composition being 0.5-3% by weight. The invention also concerns a process for producing pharmaceutical compositions containing metformin as an active substance and a hydrocolloid-forming agent as a retardant and optionally standard pharmaceutical auxiliary substances characterized in that the active substance and retarding agent or a portion thereof are granulated with an aqueous solvent which can optionally contain a binder and where appropriate the other portion of the retardant or other standard pharmaceutical auxiliaries are admixed with the granulate which is then dried until the residual moisture content is reduced to 0.5-3% by weight.

Abstract: The present invention concerns lyophilized pharmaceutical preparations of G-CSF that contain maltose, raffinose, sucrose, trehalose or amino sugar as stabilizing agents. In additon the invention concerns a process for the production of stabilized lyophilisates as well as the use of maltose, raffinose, sucrose, trehalose or amino sugar as stabilizing agents of pharmaceutical agents containing G-CSF.

Abstract: Aqueous pharmaceutical preparations of G-CSF are disclosed that are stable on storage and a buffer selected from the group consisting of a salt of citrate, maleate, a combination of phosphate and citrate, and arginine; and at least one surfactant.
