  • Patent number: 6681768
    Abstract: A disperser for dry powders which can be used with different dose systems, dose weights ranging from 2 to 25 mg and different types of powder formulation. In one embodiment, the disperser acts both as a de-agglomeration (disintegration; aerosolization) means and as an air classifier for especially adhesive mixtures. Only fine drug particles are emitted whereas the larger agglomerates and carrier crystals are retained by the disperser. Another embodiment enables time controlled release of carrier crystals in these mixtures. Yet another embodiment has optimized performance with spherical pellets, containing no carrier crystals. Other possible embodiments of the invention make it possible to control the total inhaler resistance and the powder deposition in the upper respiratory tract by means of the addition of a so-called sheath flow of clean air. Modifications also enable carrier retainment in the mouthpiece and elimination of the tangential flow component of the discharge cloud.

  • Patent number: 6667058
    Abstract: Pharmaceutical dosage units containing flupirtine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of flupirtine with controlled release of active substance using a delayed-action or controlled-release component. There are 0.001 to 20 parts delayed-action component for each part by weight flupirtine (calculated as the base) and the release rate of flupirtine is between 5 and 300 mg per hour. In some cases, the dosage units may also contain a rapidly releasing component of flupirtine or of one of its salts. The dosage units reduce the sedative effect of flupirtine.
