Abstract: Novel pharmaceutical dosage forms provide for pulsatile delivery of an antiarrhythmic agent that releases the drug in spaced apart “pulses.” The dosage forms are comprised of first, second and optional third dosage units, with each dosage unit having a different drug release profile. The dosage forms may comprise capsules housing compressed tablets or drug-containing beads, granules, or particles or may comprise a single tablet with the first, second and optional third dosage units incorporated therein, or a “coated core” dosage form. Methods of treatment using the pharmaceutical dosage forms are provided as well.

Abstract: The invention includes a patch and method for transdermal delivery of bupropion base. In the method of this invention, a patient is administered a bupropion base in an amount effective to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and to prevent or reduce craving of nicotine in said patient. Alternatively, an effective amount of bupropion base is delivered to alleviate depression in a patient or to treat obesity. A transdermal patch includes a bupropion base. The bupropion base can be mixed with an acceptable pharmaceutical carrier.
