Abstract: Inclusion Complexes of Racemic Ibuproxam and of Optically Active Ibuproxam with Cyclodextrin Derivatives, Process for the Preparation Thereof, Pharmaceutical Preparations Containing these Inclusion Complexes or Containing Optically Active S-(+)-Ibuproxam, and Use ThereofThere are disclosed novel inclusion complexes of racemic ibuproxam and of optically active S-(+)-ibuproxam with hydrophilic and hydrophobic cyclodextrin derivatives and, in the case of optically active S-(+)-ibuproxam, also with .beta.-cyclodextrin alone. Further a process for preparing S-(+)-ibuproxam and inclusion complexes of racemic ibuproxam and of optically active S-(+)-ibuproxam with hydrophilic and hydrophobic derivatives of .beta.-cyclodextrin and, in the case of optically active S-(+)-ibuproxam, also with .beta.-cyclodextrin alone, is disclosed.Disclosed are also pharmaceutical compositions containing these inclusion complexes or optically active S-(+)-ibuproxam.

Abstract: Described is a new process for the preparation of alkali clavulanate from an aqueous solution of crude clavulanic acid, which is obtained in a conventional manner after the fermentation with a clavulanic-acid-producing microorganism, extracted with an ethyl acetate solution of a hydrophobic .beta.-CD derivative such as heptakis-(2,3,6-tri-O-acetyl)-.beta.-CD in at least equimolar ratio with regard to clavulanic acid. The resulting novel inclusion complexes of clavulanic acid and hydrophobic .beta.-CD derivative in a molar ratio about 1:1 are isolated, purified and then converted with an alkali base or alkali alkanoate to the desired alkali clavulanate, which is isolated. Furthermore, there are described new inclusion complexes of clavulanic acid and of its pharmaceutically acceptable alkali salts both with hydrophilic .beta.-CD derivatives and with hydrophobic .beta.

Abstract: Described is a new process for the preparation of alkali clavulanate from an aqueous solution of pure clavulanic acid and of pharmaceutically acceptable potassium crude clavulanic acid, which is obtained in a conventional manner after the fermentation with a clavulanic-acid-producing microorganism, extracted with an ethyl acetate solution of a hydrophobic .beta.-CD derivative such as heptakis-(2,3,6-tri-O-acetyl)-.beta.-CD in equimolar amount or up to 10% excess with regard to clavulanic acid. The resulting novel inclusion complexes of clavulanic acid and hydrophobic .beta.-CD derivative in a molar ratio about 1:1 are isolated, purified with water and then converted with potassium 2-ethyl hexanate to the potassium clavulanate, which is isolated. Furthermore, there are described new inclusion complexes of clavulanic acid and of its pharmaceutically acceptable potassium salt both with hydrophilic .beta.-CD derivatives and with hydrophobic .beta.

Abstract: There are described novel dispersible cimetidine tablets containing 30 to 90% by weight of one of the polymorphous modifications of cimetidine A, B or C, 5 to 55% by weight of one or more disintegrationg agents, 0.05 to 5.0% by weight of a surfactant, such as sodium lauryl sulphate together with other common adjuvants. The process for the manufacture of dispersible cimetidine tablets is effected on the basis of known methods by granulating the ingredients and by compressing the granulate to tablets. Dispersible tablets disintegrate when brought in contact with water at room temperature within less than 1 minute to yield a fine dispersion, which facilitates the oral application. Therefore such tablets are particularly suitable for certain groups of patients, especially for the aged and children. Dispersible tablets containing cimetidine excell by their improved rate of dissolution and good bioavailability.

Abstract: There are described novel dispersible tablets of dihydroergotoxine or of acid addition salts thereof, containing 0.1 to 4% by weight of dihydroergotoxine or its acid addition salts, 4 to 60% by weight of one or more disintegrating agents, 0.8 to 10% by weight of an organic acid and, optionally, 0.2 to 2% by weight of an antioxidizing agent together with other common adjuvants. The process for the manufacture of dispersible tablets of dihydroergotoxine and of acid addition salts thereof is carried out on the basis of known methods by granulating the ingredients and by compressing the granulate to tablets. Dispersible tablets disintegrate within less than 1 minute when brought in contact with water at room temperature to yield a fine dispersion, which facilitates the oral application. Therefore such tablets are particularly suitable for the aged. Dispersible tablets containing dihydroergotoxine or acid addition salts thereof excell by their improved rate of dissolution and good bioavailability.
