Abstract: The present invention relates to formulations comprising dolutegravir or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, processes for making such formulations, and the use of such formulations in the treatment of HIV infection, in particular in the treatment of HIV infection in pediatric patients.

Abstract: The present invention relates to formulations comprising dolutegravir or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, abacavir or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and lamivudine, processes for making such formulations, and the use of such formulations in the treatment of HIV infection, in particular in the treatment of HIV infection in pediatric patients.

Abstract: Disclosed is a pharmaceutical composition comprising both rosiglitazone or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and donepezil or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof which is of use in the treatment or prophylaxis of Alzheimer's disease or other dementias and mild cognitive impairment. Also disclosed is an oral dosage forms comprising rosiglitazone or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and donepezil or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: An oral dosage form, such as a bilayer tablet, comprising a first layer of a first composition and a second layer of a second composition, each composition comprising 5-[4-[2-(N-methyl-N-(2 pyridyl)amino)ethoxy]benzyl]thiazolidine-2,4-dione or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, (‘the drug’) and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor, wherein the first and second compositions are arranged to release drug at differing release rates on administration; a process for preparing such a dosage form; and the use of such a dosage form in medicine.

Abstract: A process for the manufacture of particles comprises mechanically working a mixture of a drug and a hydrophobic and/or hydrophilic fusible carrier in a high speed mixture so as to form agglomerates, breaking the agglomerates to give controlled release particles and optionally continuing the mechanical working with the optional addition of a low percentage of the carrier or diluent.

Abstract: Sustained release pharmaceutical formulations containing morphine, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as active ingredient, suitable for administration on a once daily basis, are disclosed. In a first aspect, an orally administrable sustained release unit dosage form gives a peak plasma level at 1.0 to 6 hours after administration. In a second aspect, the formulation provides a W.sub.50 for the M-6-G metabolite for morphine of between 4 and 12 hours. A third aspect concerns the pharmaceutical unit dosage form obtained by compressing multiparticulates comprising a pharmaceutically active substance in a matrix of hydrophobic fusible material having a melting point of from 35 to 150.degree. C.

Abstract: A controlled release, solid, oral dosage form containing a 3-alkylxanthine, preferably theophylline, at least one hydrophilic or hydrophobic polymer, at least one wax having a melting point between 25.degree. and 90.degree. C. and between 3% and 10% (by weight) water.Preferably the dosage form is a tablet and the water content is between 4% and 9% (by weight). The amount of water present in the dosage form determines the rate of release of the 3-alkylxanthine.

Abstract: A controlled release pharmaceutical composition contains a number of spheroids, the spheroids containing a water-insoluble drug dispersed in a controlled release matrix. The matrix contains between 70% and 99.5% (by weight) of microcrystalline cellulose, between 0.5% and 4% (by weight) of a cellulose derivative and, optionally, up to 26% of a sugar or a sugar alcohol.The water insoluble drug must dissolve in water (pH 5) at 20.degree. C. to a concentration of less than 1.0 mg ml-1, preferably less than 0.5 mg ml-1. Preferred drugs are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, especially fenprofen calcium, ibuprofen, ketoprofen, naproxen, diclofenac sodium, fenbufen, flurbiprofen, indomethancin, oxyphenbutazone, phenylbutazone or piroxicam.
