  • Patent number: 10420785
    Abstract: A taste-masked rapidly dispersible dosage form of topiramate is provided. Wax coated particles of topiramate are included within a porous bound matrix. The topiramate retains its taste-masked form after dispersion in the mouth of a subject even though the particles are not coated with a polymeric material. The dosage form disperses in saliva or water in less than 2 min even though it has a high content of wax. It can be used to treat diseases or disorders that are therapeutically responsive to topiramate or a derivative thereof.

  • Patent number: 9744137
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to pharmaceutical compositions that allow for once-daily or alternate day dosage forms of topiramate. The proposed delayed/extended release single dosage form is equivalent to the immediate-release multiple dose daily regimen, and upon administration, provides steady state blood levels of topiramate. Formulations with increased bioavailability and improved pharmacokinetics are disclosed. A once-a-day administration of topiramate is advantageous over the multiple dose regimen both in terms of patient compliance and reduced adverse events, thus providing better treatment of the conditions for which the topiramate is indicated.
