The present invention relates to an oral pulse release pharmaceutical composition, which comprises a polymer matrix core, wherein at least one pharmaceutically active ingredient is distributed within the core and on the outer surface of the core. Amphetamine salts, among a number of other pharmaceutically active ingredients, can be formulated as a pharmaceutical composition described herein. The present invention also provides a method for preparing an immediate release component on a solid pharmaceutical formulation.

Matrix-based pulse release pharmaceutical formulation

The present disclosure provides extended release pharmaceutical compositions comprising oxycodone and acetaminophen that produce a quick initial onset of analgesia, yet, maintain analgesia for about 12 hours after administration of the composition to a subject in need thereof. The pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein also reduce the levels of acetaminophen in a subject's blood near the end of the dosing interval because the acetaminophen released by the pharmaceutical composition is being eliminated by a subject's body faster than it is being absorbed.

Pharmaceutical compositions for extended release of oxycodone and acetaminophen resulting in a quick onset and prolonged period of analgesia

The present disclosure provides an extended release pharmaceutical composition comprising hydrocodone and acetaminophen that provides a rapid onset of analgesia, and reduced levels of acetaminophen near the end of the dosing interval. Also provided are methods for reducing the risk of acetaminophen-induced hepatic damage in a subject being treated with an acetaminophen containing composition, as well as methods for treating pain in a subject in need thereof.

Tamper resistant composition comprising hydrocodone and acetaminophen for rapid onset and extended duration of analgesia

The present disclosure provides an extended release pharmaceutical composition comprising oxycodone and acetaminophen that provides a rapid onset of analgesia, and reduced levels of acetaminophen near the end of the dosing interval. Also provided are methods for reducing the risk of acetaminophen-induced hepatic damage in a subject being treated with an acetaminophen containing composition, as well as methods for treating pain in a subject in need thereof.

Combination composition comprising oxycodone and acetaminophen for rapid onset and extended duration of analgesia

The present disclosure provides extended release pharmaceutical compositions comprising an opioid and an additional active pharmaceutical ingredient, wherein the composition exhibits gastric retentive properties which are achieved by a combination of a physical property of the composition and release of the opioid, wherein upon administration to a subject, the composition has at least one pharmacokinetic parameter that differs by less than about 30% when the subject is in a fasted state as compared to a fed state.

Gastric retentive extended release pharmaceutical compositions

Methods for producing stabilized solid dosage form pharmaceutical compositions are provided. In particular, methods for preparing protected granules containing morphinans, and solid dosage form pharmaceutical compositions produced using the morphinan-protected granules are provided.

Methods of producing stabilized solid dosage pharmaceutical compositions containing morphinans

The present disclosure provides extended release pharmaceutical compositions comprising oxycodone and acetaminophen that produce a quick initial onset of analgesia, yet, maintain analgesia for about 12 hours after administration of the composition to a subject in need thereof. The pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein also reduce the levels of acetaminophen in a subject's blood near the end of the dosing interval because the acetaminophen released by the pharmaceutical composition is being eliminated by a subjects body faster than it is being absorbed.
