Abstract: A solid or semi-solid pharmaceutical dosage form comprising non-steroidal-anti-inflammatory drugs, in particular propionic acid derivatives such as ibuprofen, along with a second active ingredient having a shorter therapeutically effective plasma concentration duration, such as phenylephrine, and methods of administering the same are provided. This method provides improved therapeutic effect, in particular pain relief along with decongestant relief, over extended time periods.

Abstract: The invention relates to a tablet capable of being chewed or disintegrated in the oral cavity, which comprises an enteric coated aspirin active ingredient, and preferably a lightly compressed matrix comprising directly compressible carbohydrate(s) and at least one sweetener.

Abstract: Phenylephrine particles suitable for solid, semi solid or liquid dosage forms are disclosed.

Abstract: A circuit for connecting a memory cell matrix to voltage sources includes a voltage sensor responsive to the voltage levels of a first voltage source and of a second voltage source by producing a sense signal, and a voltage source coupler connected between the memory cell matrix and the voltage sensor. When the first voltage source voltage level is greater than a predetermined threshold voltage level, the sense signal causes the voltage source coupler to drive the first voltage source voltage level into the memory cell matrix. When the first voltage source voltage level falls to the threshold voltage level, the sense signal also causes the voltage source coupler to drive the second voltage source voltage level into the memory cell matrix to sustain memory cell data.
