  • Patent number: 10668060
    Abstract: Tamper-resistant pharmaceutical compositions have been developed to reduce the likelihood of improper administration of drugs, especially drugs such as opioids. The tamper-resistant compositions retard the release of drug, even if the physical integrity of the formulation is compromised (for example, by chopping with a blade or crushing) and the resulting material is placed in water, snorted, or swallowed. However, when administered as directed, the drug is slowly released from the composition as the composition is passes through the GI tract.

  • Patent number: 9065741
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for identifying and alleviating bottlenecks prior to processing packets in internal feature modules are described. First, a method is provided for aggregating the service policies of various physical interfaces, and using results of the aggregation to determine whether a packet processing engine is capable of satisfying the aggregated service policy information. Second, a method and apparatus for applying the aggregated service policy prior to processing in an internal feature module, such as a crypto-engine. Packets on routers/switches are expected to be subjected to certain policies to address resource contention or streamlining/prioritization on outbound interfaces. Internal bottlenecks that a user can neither see nor control may cause packet transmission guarantees to be violated. Encryption is an example of an internal service that adds overhead thereby creating an internal bottleneck.
