Abstract: The present application relates to a pregabalin sustained release composition, comprising: (a) an active ingredient; (b) a matrix-forming agent; (c) a swelling agent; (d) a gelling agent; and optionally a filler. The pregabalin sustained release composition provided in the present application can rapidly swell in volume when exposed to aqueous medium until exceeding the dimeter of human gastric pyloric (13 mm). It thereby prolongs the gastric emptying time to increase the retention time of pregabalin in the stomach and enhances absorption of pregabalin in the small intestine and ascending colon. Moreover, the pregabalin sustained release composition provided herein achieves a sustained release for 24 h, which allows QD (once a day) administration, reduces administration number, and improves patient compliance.

Abstract: Bonding a full-bridge device and an LLC device in a stack, or forming the full-bridge device and the LLC device on a same substrate, rather than connecting the devices, reduces a chip area associated with a power converter including the full-bridge device and the LLC device. Additionally, the full-bridge device and the LLC device consume less power because parasitic inductance and capacitance are reduced. Additionally, raw materials and production time are conserved that would otherwise have been used to connect the full-bridge device and the LLC device (e.g., via wires).
