  • Patent number: 8598233
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for administering memantine to a subject are provided. In particular, a solid pharmaceutical composition in a unit dosage form for once daily oral administration is provided. The compositions comprises an extended release formulation of 22.5 mg to 33.75 mg memantine, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein administration of a dose of the composition to a human subject provides a mean plasma memantine concentration profile characterized by a change in memantine concentration as a function of time (dC/dT) that is less than 50% of the dC/dT provided by the same quantity of an immediate release form of memantine, determined in a time period between 0 hours to 6 hours after administration of memantine, and wherein dC/dT is measured in a single-dose human PK study. Methods of treating dementia, in particular Alzheimer's diseases, using the compositions are provided.

  • Publication number: 20130317115
    Abstract: A method of administering amantadine is provided. The method comprises orally administering to a subject a pharmaceutical composition comprising amantadine, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and one or more excipients, wherein at least one of the excipients modifies release of the amantadine. A dose of the composition provides a mean change in amantadine plasma concentration as a function of time (dC/dT) that is less than 40% of the change in amantadine plasma concentration provided by a dose of the same quantity of an immediate release form of amantadine. The change in plasma concentration over time (dC/dT) is measured in a single dose human pharmacokinetic study in a defined time period of 0 to 4 hours after administration. The amantadine, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered once daily at a dose of 300 to 500 mg per day.

  • Patent number: 8580858
    Abstract: The invention provides compositions comprising extended release memantine in combination with immediate release donepezil to a subject. Memantine in an extended release form containing 22.5 to 30 mg memantine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in combination with donepezil achieves particular pharmacokinetic criteria such as change in plasma concentration of memantine over time and ratio of maximum memantine plasma concentration to mean memantine plasma concentration.

  • Patent number: 8362085
    Abstract: The invention provides methods for administering memantine to a subject. Memantine in an extended release form containing 22.5 to 30 mg memantine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt is administered to a patient suffering from a neurological condition, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease or dementia. The extended release form achieves particular pharmacokinetic criteria such as change in plasma concentration of memantine over time and ratio of maximum memantine plasma concentration to mean memantine plasma concentration.
