Abstract: An oral drug delivery system comprising a coated tablet having one or more surfaces. The coated tablet further comprises a core and a coating surrounding the core. The core comprises an active ingredient composition comprising at least one active ingredient and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and a swellable composition located in an immediate vicinity of one or more preselected surfaces. The coating comprises a defect wherein said defect is not a passageway through the preselected portion of the coating and operable to be reliably removed fully from the one or more of the preselected surfaces of the tablet upon contact with an aqueous environment, but not removed from at least one of the surfaces.

Abstract: An oral drug delivery system comprising a coated tablet having one or more surfaces. The coated tablet further comprises a core and a coating surrounding the core. The core comprises an active ingredient composition comprising at least one active ingredient and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and a reactive composition located in an immediate vicinity of one or more preselected surfaces. The coating is operable to be reliably removed fully from the one or more of the preselected surfaces of the tablet upon contact with an aqueous environment, but not removed from at least one of the surfaces.

Abstract: An abuse deterrent immediate release coated reservoir solid dosage form that releases the drug at a desired rate for quick onset of action when a single unit or prescribed units of the dosage form are orally administered but exhibits a reduced rate of release when more than the prescribed number of units, are administered.
