Abstract: An oral dosage form comprising, (i) an erodable core, which core comprises a pharmaceutically active weak base or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof; and (ii) an erodable coating surrounding said core, which coating comprises one or more openings extending substantially completely through said coating but not penetrating said core and communicating from the environment of use to said core; characterized in that release of the pharmaceutically active weak base or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof from the dosage form occurs through the said opening(s) by the erosion of said erodable core and through erosion of said erodable coating under pre-determined pH conditions; a process for preparing such a dosage form and the use of such a dosage form in medicine.

Abstract: An oral dosage form, such as a bilayer tablet, comprising a first layer of a first composition and a second layer of a second composition, each composition comprising 5-[4-[2-(N-methyl-N-(2 pyridyl)amino)ethoxy]benzyl]thiazolidine-2,4-dione or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, (‘the drug’) and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor, wherein the first and second compositions are arranged to release drug at differing release rates on administration; a process for preparing such a dosage form; and the use of such a dosage form in medicine.

Abstract: An oral dosage form comprising pellets of a first composition and pellets of a second composition, each composition comprising 5-[4-[2-(N-methyl-N-(2 pyridyl)amino)ethoxy]benzyl]thiazolidine-2,4-dione or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor, wherein the first and second compositions are arranged to release drug at differing release rates on administration, preferably such that the rate of release of the drug from the dosage form is substantially independent of pH; a process for preparing such a dosage form and the use of such a dosage form in medicine.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition, which composition comprises: an insulin sensitiser and another antidiabetic agent and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor, wherein the composition is arranged to provide a modified release of at least one of the insulin sensitiser and the other antidiabetes agent, and the use of such composition in medicine.

Abstract: An oral dosage form that provides controlled release of an active pharmaceutical agent, 5 -[4-[2-(N-methyl-N-(2 pyridyl)amino)ethoxy]benzyl]thiazolidine-2,4-dione (hereinafter ‘Compound A’) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof in different body environments, a process for the preparation of such an oral dosage form, and the use of such a dosage form in medicine.

Abstract: An oral dosage form comprising a first composition and a second composition, each composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable weak base, especially Compound A or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, (‘the drug’) and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor, wherein the first and second compositions are arranged to release drug at differing release rates on administration such that the rate of release of the drug from the dosage form is substantially independent of pH; a process for preparing such a dosage form and the use of such a dosage form in medicine.
