  • Patent number: 9717678
    Abstract: A delivery system for administration to a patient of Fenobam, its hydrates, and salts optimizes solubility and dissolution properties of Fenobam, its hydrates, and salts using either microemulsions, solid dispersions, cyclodextrin, gastroretentives, enteric coatings, and sustained delivery techniques to provide a vehicle for oral administration of these drugs.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 2, 2012
    Date of Patent: August 1, 2017
    Assignee: MURTY PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.
    Inventors: Santos B Murty, Ram B Murty
  • Publication number: 20160184258
    Abstract: An oral gastrointestinal dosage form of cannabinoids and/or standardized marijuana extracts in a self-emulsifying system operable to avoid hepatic first pass metabolism via targeted chylomicron/lipoprotein delivery for promoting lymphatic transport. The oral gastrointestinal dosage form includes: (a) a pharmacologically active form of cannabinoids and/or standardized marijuana extracts; and (b) an oily medium consisting of: (i) one or more triglycerides formed from long chain fatty having from C13 to C24 carbon atoms; (ii) one or more mixed glycerides formed from long chain fatty having from C13 to C24 carbon atoms; and (iii) one or more free fatty acids formed from un-esterified long chain fatty acids having from C13 to C24 carbon atoms; and (c) about 10-60 wt % of a surfactant which promotes self-emulsification.

  • Patent number: 9265724
    Abstract: Self-emulsifying drug delivery systems are provided to improve dissolution, stability, and bioavailability of drug compounds of dronabinol or other cannabinoids. The drug compound(s) are dissolved in an oily medium (e.g. triglycerides and/or mixed glycerides and/or free fatty acids containing medium and/or long chain saturated, mono-unsaturated, and/or poly-unsaturated free fatty acids) together with at least one surfactant. The surfactant promotes self-emulsification, thereby promoting targeted chylomicron/lipoprotein delivery and optimal bioavailability through the mammalian intestinal tract. A dosage form can optionally include co-solvents, anti-oxidants, viscosity modifying agents, cytochrome P450 metabolic inhibitors, P-GP efflux inhibitors, and amphiphilic/non-amphiphilic solutes to induce semi-solid formation for targeted release rates.

    Abstract: An oral dosage form of cannabinoids and/or standardized marijuana extracts in a self-emulsifying system operable to avoid hepatic first pass metabolism via targeted chylomicron/lipoprotein delivery for promoting lymphatic transport. The oral dosage form includes: (a) a pharmacologically active form of cannabinoids and/or standardized marijuana extracts; and (b) an oily medium consisting of: (i) about 15 to 85 wt % of one or more triglycerides formed from long chain fatty having from C13 to C24 carbon atoms; (ii) about 15 to 85 wt % of one or more mixed glycerides formed from long chain fatty having from C13 to C24 carbon atoms; and (iii) one or more free fatty acids formed from un-esterified long chain fatty acids having from C13 to C24 carbon atoms; and (c) about 10 to 70 wt % of a surfactant which promotes self-emulsification.
