  • Publication number: 20240390591
    Abstract: A pre-filled syringe includes a barrel with a medicament and a stopper within the barrel. The stopper has at least two adjacent sealing rings and a trim ring. The syringe has a head space distance between a distal-most surface of the stopper and the surface of the medicament. The head space (a) provides sufficient space to optimize reconstituting a drug suspension by shaking or agitating the drug suspension, and (b) minimizes frothing and/or clogging of the reconstituted drug suspension in the barrel. Also, a kit includes the syringe, a plunger, a syringe cap, and a needle assembly. Further, a method for stoppering the syringe includes determining the head space distance.

  • Publication number: 20230241304
    Abstract: Provided are populations of syringes that respectively contain paliperidone palmitate extended release injectable suspension, wherein each of the syringes have been shipped to a destination, and the syringes were each maintained in a desired orientation during shipping of the syringe that varies from the orientation of the syringe during pre-shipping storage. The present disclosure also provides pharmaceutical products comprising a paliperidone palmitate extended-release injectable suspension within a syringe for administration to a patient suffering from schizophrenia, wherein the syringe has undergone pre-shipping storage and has been shipped, and wherein the syringe has been maintained in an orientation during the shipping that varies from the orientation of the syringe during pre-shipping storage.

  • Patent number: 11666697
    Abstract: Provided are methods for improving resuspendability of a paliperidone palmitate extended-release injectable suspension within a syringe, for reducing a force required for injection of a paliperidone palmitate extended-release injectable suspension, or for reducing the likelihood of incomplete injection of a paliperidone palmitate extended-release injectable suspension comprising maintaining the syringe in a desired orientation during shipping of the syringe that varies from the orientation of the syringe during pre-shipping storage. Also provided are populations of syringes that respectively contain paliperidone palmitate extended release injectable suspension, wherein each of the syringes have been shipped to a destination, and the syringes were each maintained in a desired orientation during shipping of the syringe that varies from the orientation of the syringe during pre-shipping storage.
