Pharmaceutical compositions are provided for administration of rotigotine in depot form. Pharmaceutical compositions of the invention can provide therapeutically significant plasma levels of rotigotine over a period of at least 24 hours after administration to a patient. Preferred pharmaceutical compositions of the invention include oily suspensions that contain rotigotine in solid form as well as anhydrous pharmaceutical compositions that comprise rotigotine.

Method for producing a pharmaceutical composition comprising rotigotine

The invention relates to novel pharmaceutical compositions for the systemic administration of pharmacologically active ingredients. The invention relates in particular to an injectable pharmaceutical composition comprising (a) a pharmacologically active ingredient in a solid phase, (b) a vehicle consisting substantially of polyol fatty acid esters with a degree of esterification of over 80%, and (c) a wetting agent consisting substantially of polyol fatty acid esters with a monoester proportion of over 60%. The inventive composition is used for the systemic administration of numerous pharmacologically active ingredients, whereby the ingredients are released from the pharmaceutical composition over a period of at least 12, preferably at least 24 hours.

Injectable pharmaceutical composition for systematic administration of pharmacologically active ingredients

A transdermal therapeutic system (TTS) for transcutaneous administration of oxybutynin over a period of several days, in addition to a method for the production of the TTS without the use of solvents, are disclosed. The TTS contains a matrix mass containing oxybutynin in the form of a self-adhesive layer. The matrix mass includes ammonium-group-containing (meth)acrylic polymers, at least one citric acid ester, and 5-25 wt. % oxybutynin.

Transdermal therapeutic system (TTS) containing oxybutynin

The invention relates to a transdermal therapeutic system (TTS) for the transcutaneous administration of pergolide over several days and to a method for its manufacture without using solvents. The TTS contains a matrix mass, containing pergolide and taking the form of a layer, which contains a (meth)acrylate copolymer containing ammonio groups or a mixture of a (meth)acrylate copolymer containing amino groups and a (meth)acrylate polymer containing carboxyl groups, 10-50% by weight propylene glycol and up to 5% by weight pergolide.
