  • Patent number: 8980338
    Abstract: A composition including as an active ingredient an extract of a plant of the family Mesembryanthemaceae with mesembrenol and mesembrenone as the two major alkaloids present. The invention also relates to the use of the composition as a PDE4 inhibitor and as a serotonin-uptake inhibitor, preferably applied in formulations for the use of the composition as a dual serotonin-uptake inhibitor and PDE4 inhibitor. The invention extends to compositions, such as pharmaceutical compositions or compositions used as dietary supplements, the total alkaloid content of which includes at least 80% (w/w) combined content of mesembrenol and mesembrenone, less than 5% (w/w) mesembrine, and at least 7% (w/w) mesembranol.

  • Publication number: 20150050335
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods for making extended-release formulations of water-soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients such as metformin HCl. In one aspect, the disclosure provides a method that includes adding an aqueous solution of an active pharmaceutical ingredient to an agitated mixture of one or more release-modifying polymers and optionally one or more binders in one or more organic solvents, the one or more organic solvents together being an antisolvent for the active pharmaceutical ingredient, water being sufficiently soluble in the one or more organic solvents such that the water added as part of the aqueous solution dissolves in the mixture, the addition thereby precipitating the active pharmaceutical ingredient; separating the active pharmaceutical ingredient and the one or more release-modifying polymers and, if present, the one or more binders from the one or more organic solvents to yield co-processed particles; and drying the co-processed particles.
