Abstract: The present invention relates to a sublingual coated tablet and to a method for the preparation thereof. The tablet includes a core devoid of a pharmaceutically active substance, and a coating including at least one active substance. The preferred active substance is an opioid analgesic.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a sublingual tablet and to the method for the preparation thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a multilayer orodispersible tablet and to the process for preparing it.

Abstract: The present invention relates to sustained-release morphine sulfate microgranules each comprising a neutral support grain coated with an active layer and with a sustained-release layer, wherein the sustained-release layer contains a copolymer of methacrylic acid, and a silica selected from hydrophobic fumed silica, as well as pharmaceutical compositions containing them.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a fentanyl coated tablet and to the method for the preparation thereof.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a novel sustained-release oral formulation of morphine sulphate in the form of microgranules. Each microgranule comprises a neutral support grain coated with an active layer and with a sustained-release layer, characterized in that the sustained-release layer contains a copolymer of methacrylic acid and of methyl methacrylate ester, the relative proportion of the free carboxyl groups and of the ester groups of which is equal to 0.5 approximately, and a silica exhibiting a hydrophobic character. The present invention also concerns a process for preparing these microgranules which is carried out entirely in aqueous medium by emplacing on neutral support grains.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a multilayer orodispersible tablet and to the process for preparing it.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for producing granules, in particular pharmaceutical granules, comprising a drum (4) with peripheral apertures (25) and a member (30) feeding the drum with coating or fixing substance. The drum (4) comprises mutually parallel sections (22) defining between them the apertures (25).

Abstract: Pharmaceutical compositions comprising micronized fenofibrate, a surfactant and a binding cellulose derivative as a solubilization adjuvant, wherein said compositions contain an amount of fenofibrate greater than or equal to 60% by weight and methods of producing fenofibrate compositions.

Abstract: Novel forms of sustained-release microgranules (LP) containing diltiazem are disclosed. The microgranules consist of a neutral granular carrier coated with an active layer including diltiazem or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as the active principle, a surfactant and a binder, and an outer layer providing sustained release of the active principle (layer LP).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel oral immediate-release morphine sulfate formulation in the form of microgranules.

Abstract: The invention concerns omeprazole microgranules each comprising an active layer containing the active principle, and an outer gastroprotecting layer containing a gastroprotecting agent, characterized in that the omeprazole is combined with at least a hydrophobic substance.

Abstract: The invention concerns an oral formulation of cisplatin, in the form of controlled-release microgranules, and its method of formulation by grossing in an aqueous medium. The invention also concerns a pharmaceutical preparation containing controlled-release cisplatin microgranules, optionally combined with an anticancer agent, to be used in anticancer therapy. The invention further provides a use for these microgranules for making orally administered medicaments for polychemotherapy or in combination with radiotherapy.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel oral immediate-release morphine sulfate formulation in the form of microgranules. Each microgranule comprises a neutral support grain coated with a mixture of morphine sulfate and of a binder, such as hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, which represents 10 to 50% by weight of the morphine sulfate/binder mixture. The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of these microgranules which is carried out entirely in aqueous medium on neutral support grains. The present invention finally relates to the pharmaceutical preparations comprising the microgranules according to the invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel pharmaceutical form, in the form of spheroids, containing tiagabine as active principle. The invention also covers the process for the preparation of such spheroids and multiparticulate pharmaceutical preparations, such as tablets, containing these spheroids. These pharmaceutical preparations are intended for the delivery of the spheroids they contain, and are characterized by the absence of an adverse effect on the release profile of the tiagabine contained in the spheroids following a possible compression step.
