    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a novel medical device that can release a biologically active agent.SOLUTION: The implant is a drug loaded polymer device 100, such as a rod, designed to control the release of the biologically active agent 20, such as clonidine or its derivatives, such as clonidine HCl for a prolonged period of time, such as 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, and even 4.5 months. The polymer 10 is preferably a biodegradable polymer, such as poly(lactide-co-glycolide) or polylactic acid/polylactide. The challenge in using the HCl salt forms of drugs such as clonidine, is controlling the release of the highly water soluble drug for up to 4.5 months. It has been found that by controlling the particle size distribution of the drug powder, the drug distribution within the polymer matrix is more uniform and can be controlled. Therefore, the large aggregates, which cause rapid drug release can be eliminated.

    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an implantable drug depot useful for reducing, preventing or treating post-operative pain in a patient in need of such treatment, the implantable drug depot comprising a therapeutically effective amount of clonidine or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a polymer; wherein the depot is implantable at a site beneath the skin to reduce, prevent or treat post-operative pain, and the depot is capable of releasing (i) about 5% to about 45% of the clonidine or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof relative to a total amount of the clonidine or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof loaded in the drug depot over a first period of up to 48 hours and (ii) about 55% to about 95% of the clonidine or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof relative to a total amount of the clonidine or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof loaded in the drug depot over a subsequent period of at least 3 days.
