Abstract:
The present invention provides a gastric retention controlled drug delivery system comprising: (a) a controlled release core comprising a drug, a highly swellable polymer and a gas generating agent, said core being capable of swelling and achieving floatation rapidly while maintaining its physical integrity in gastrointestinal fluids for prolonged periods, and (b) a rapidly releasing coat composition comprising the same drug as in the core and pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, wherein the coating composition surrounds the core such that the system provides a biphasic release of the drug in gastrointestinal fluids.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to nano-resin particles that are suitable for pharmaceutical use and their use in the pharmaceutical field. The present invention provides nano-sized resin particles having a particle size distribution characterized in that D 90 value is between 200 nanometers to 900 nanometer and D 10 value is not less than 50 nanometers, wherein the nano-resin particles are in pure form and safe for pharmaceutical use. The present invention further relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these purified nano-resin particles and their use in the treatment of diseases. The present invention further provides a process for preparing purified, nano-sized resin particles that are suitable for pharmaceutical use, the process comprising steps of: (i) washing an ion exchange resin and suspending in an aqueous liquid, (ii) subjecting the suspension of (i) to wet milling for a period such that the particles have a particle size distribution characterized in that the D 90 value is between 200 nanometers to 900 nanometers and D 10 value is not less than 50 nanometers, (iii) subjecting the suspension of (ii) to purification to remove impurities, (iv) drying the purified suspension to obtain nano-resin particles in the form of dry powder.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel amidoheteroaryl aroyl hydrazide ethynes as tyrosine kinase inhibitors, process of preparation thereof, and use of the compounds for preparation of pharmaceutical compositions in the therapeutic treatment of disorders related to tyrosine kinases in humans.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of preparing a nanoparticulate topical composition of a water soluble, water-susceptible active ingredient or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, the method comprising steps of milling the water soluble, water-susceptible active ingredient or its salt, a wetting agent and a non-aqueous liquid vehicle to obtain a non-aqueous nanosuspension and converting the non-aqueous nanosuspension into a topical composition.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to crystalline forms of S-[4-(3-fluoro-3-methylbutyryloxy)but-2-ynyl] 6α,9α-difluoro-17α-(furan-2-yl)carbonyloxy-11β-hydroxy-16α-methyl-3-oxoandrosta-1,4-diene-17β-carbothioate, an anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic glucocorticoid compound.
Abstract:
An abuse deterrent immediate release biphasic matrix 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.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel cysteinyl leukotriene (specifically LTD4) antagonists, mainly to quinolin, quinoxaline or benz[c]thiazole derivatives represented by the general formula (I), or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, process of preparation thereof, and to the use of the compounds in the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions for the therapeutic treatment of disorders related to cysteinyl leukotriene, in mammals, more specially in humans.
