The invention relates to a matrix tablet for the prolonged release of gliclazide which ensures continuous and consistent release of the active ingredient after administration by the oral route, the release being insensitive to variations in the pH of the dissolution medium.

Provided herein are methods of modulating bile acid homeostasis or treating a bile-acid related or associated disorder, comprising using variants and fusions of fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19), variants and fusions of fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), fusions of FGF19 and/or FGF21, and variants or fusions of FGF19 and/or FGF21 proteins and peptide sequences (and peptidomimetics), in combination with agents effective in modulating bile acid homeostasis or treating a bile-acid related or associated disorder.

The invention provides a nanometer suspension of a difficult-soluble drug and a granulated preparation thereof; the preparation is prepared by the following steps: preparing a nanometer suspension by a high-speed shearing and high-pressure homogenization method, and further preparing solidified granules by the nanometer suspension through a fluidized bed or a spray-drying method, wherein the granules can be further prepared into tablets or capsules. The invention also discloses a preparation method.

The invention relates to novel modified release multiple unit systems, and methods of preparing these systems, which can be easily compressed into tablets or filled into capsules or sachets without affecting the desired release characteristics of the pharmaceutical active ingredients incorporated within the systems. The multiple unit tablet includes multiple units. Each unit includes at least one core having an outer surface, a first coating layer surrounding at least a portion of the outer surface of the core and having an outer surface, one or more rate controlling polymers, and one or more one active pharmaceutical ingredients. The coating layer includes one or both of the one or more active pharmaceutical ingredients and the one or more rate controlling polymers. The tablet may further include an outer layer on the outer surface of the unit which includes a material that is one or both of elastic and compressible. The material may be a wax materials, such as polyethylene glycol's (PEGS).
