Abstract: This invention relates to sustained release pharmaceutical compositions comprising O-desmethyl-venlafaxine, in particular to sustained pharmaceutical compositions comprising O-desmethyl-venlafaxine orotate and/or O-desmethyl-venlafaxine glucuronate.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a stable pharmaceutical composition that includes sirolimus. The pharmaceutical composition includes sirolimus in the amorphous form, a fatty acid ester, such as glyceryl behenate, and a pharmaceutically acceptable polymer wherein the fatty acid ester is present at a concentration of less than 10% w/w compared to the total weight of the composition.

Abstract: A dry formulation or granulation of eprosartan mesylate is described which comprises eprosartan mesylate in particulate form with a particle size, wherein at least 65 v/v % eprosartan mesylate particles fall in a particle size range of from 2 to 27 ?m. In another aspect, a dry formulation or granulation of eprosartan mesylate comprises eprosartan mesylate combined with an excipient which at least comprises a PEG having molecular weight in the range of 400 to 20000 and mannitol. Further described is a single dosage pharmaceutical formulation such as tablet obtained from such a dry formulation or granulation of eprosartan mesylate by direct compression or dry granulation. A dry formulation or granulation of eprosartan mesylate, or a process for the preparation thereof is also described, which comprising eprosartan mesylate in particulate form mixed with one or more excipients or additives in a way that a limited water activity is obtained.

Abstract: A tablet comprising eprosartan mesylate in only one form of either anhydrous or dihydrate form is described. In another aspect, a tablet is disclosed comprising eprosartan mesylate obtainable by direct compression, wherein eprosartan mesylate is provided in one primary form of being either anhydrous or dihydrate to the extent that the eprosartan mesylate shows a dissolution profile with a variability of dissolution from the different tablet samples of a set of below 30%, preferably below 20% and more preferably below 10% relative standard deviation at all time during dissolution, measured using USP apparatus 2, placing the tablets in 1000 ml 0.1 M hydrochloric acid at 37±0.5° C. with paddle speed of 50 rpm.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a stable pharmaceutical composition of eszopiclone with a defined particle size.

Abstract: Stabilized pharmaceutical compositions comprising polymorphs of active pharmaceutical ingredients susceptible to conversion to alternate polymorph forms are prepared by a process of wet granulation in which the ratios of active, fillers, and granulating liquid are controlled in order to avoid polymorphic interconversions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a stable pharmaceutical composition comprising sirolimus. The pharmaceutical composition comprises sirolimus in the amorphous form, a fatty acid ester and a pharmaceutically acceptable polymer wherein the fatty acid ester is present at a concentration of less than 10% w/w compared to the total weight of the composition.

Abstract: New composition of candesartan cilexetil is prepared using up to 20% of carrageenan which suitably stabilized the active ingredient against degradation during the tableting.

Abstract: Composition were developed which stabilize an active pharmaceutical ingredient in polymorph form susceptible to degradation or interconversion into other polymorph forms, where stabilizing substance is conveniently among silicon dioxide, silicified microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium oxide and polyethylene glycol.

Abstract: Novel inclusion complexes of racemic 1,4-dihydropyridines and enantiomers thereof of the formula ##STR1## wherein R represents a phenyl group, substituted with nitro, trifluoromethyl, difluoromethoxy group or with one or two halo atoms (especially chlorine),R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, if the same, represent methyl groups and if one of them has the meaning of a 2-aminoethoxymethyl or cyano group, the other represents a methyl group,R.sub.3 and R.sub.4, if different, stand each time for a hydrogen, linear or branched C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl, 2-methoxyethyl, 1-(phenylmethyl)-3-piperidinylphenyl, styryl, furyl, piperidino, 4-diphenylmethyl-1-piperazinylethyl, 5-phenyl-3-pirazolyloxy, 1-phenyl-methyl-3-pyrrolidinyl group or a group of the formula ##STR2## or, if the same, stand each time C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group, and of acid addition salts thereof with methyl-.beta.-cyclodextrin, hydroxy-ethyl-.beta.-cyclodextrin or hydroxypropyl-.beta.

Abstract: There is described a new inclusion complex of nicardipine or its hydrochloride with beta-cyclohdextrin, which is prepared by admixing nicardipine or its hydrochloride with beta-cyclodextrin in a molar ratio of the compounds 1:0.9-1.1 under stirring at a temperature from about room temperature to the boiling temperature of the reaction mixture in an aqueous or ethanolic medium, cooling the reaction mixture to 0.degree. to 5.degree. C. and isolating the desired complex.The inclusion complex of nicardipine or its hydrochloride posesses cerebrovascular-vasodilatory and coronary-vasodilatory properties, which are equally well expressed as those of nicardipine or its hydrochloride themselves, yet owing to the better solubility of the complex at a higher pH range, such as it exists e.g. in the intestinal tract, the manufacture of sustained release pharmaceutical forms is made possible, whereby a greater extent of dissolution of the active substance is provided also in the intestinal juice.
