Pharmaceutical compositions and their methods of use are provided, where the pharmaceutical compositions comprise an amphetamine prodrug that provides enzymatically-controlled release of amphetamine or an amphetamine analog. The composition can further comprise an enzyme inhibitor that interacts with the enzyme(s) that mediates the enzymatically-controlled release of amphetamine or the amphetamine analog from the amphetamine prodrug so as to attenuate enzymatic cleavage of the amphetamine prodrug.

Compositions comprising enzyme-cleavable amphetamine prodrugs and inhibitors thereof

A method of providing a patient with controlled release of ketone-containing opioid using a prodrug capable, upon enzymatic activation and intramolecular cyclization, of releasing the ketone-containing opioid is disclosed. The disclosure also provides such prodrug compounds and pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds. Such pharmaceutical compositions can optionally include an enzyme inhibitor that interacts with the enzyme(s) to mediate the enzymatically-controlled release of the ketone-containing opioid from the prodrug so as to modify enzymatic cleavage of the prodrug. Also included are methods to use such compounds and pharmaceutical compositions.

Compositions comprising enzyme-cleavable ketone-modified opioid prodrugs and optional inhibitors thereof

Pharmaceutical compositions and their methods of use are provided, where the pharmaceutical compositions comprise an opioid prodrug that provides enzymatically-controlled release of an opioid, and an enzyme inhibitor that interacts with the enzyme(s) that mediates the enzymatically-controlled release of the opioid from the opioid prodrug so as to attenuate enzymatic cleavage of the opioid prodrug.

Compositions comprising enzyme-cleavable opioid prodrugs and inhibitors thereof

Pharmaceutical compositions and their methods of use are provided, where the pharmaceutical compositions comprise a phenolic opioid prodrug that provides enzymatically-controlled release of a phenolic opioid, and an enzyme inhibitor that interacts with the enzyme(s) that mediates the enzymatically-controlled release of the phenolic opioid from the prodrug so as to attenuate enzymatic cleavage of the prodrug.

Pharmaceutical compositions with attenuated release of phenolic opioids

A method of providing a patient with controlled release of tapentadol using a prodrug capable, upon enzymatic activation and intramolecular cyclization, of releasing tapentadol is disclosed. The disclosure also provides such prodrug compounds and pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds. Such pharmaceutical compositions can optionally include an enzyme inhibitor that interacts with the enzyme(s) to mediate the enzymatically-controlled release of tapentadol from the prodrug so as to modify enzymatic cleavage of the prodrug. Also included are methods to use such compounds and pharmaceutical compositions.
