A membrane system comprising an interior wall, a fluid-permeable exterior wall surrounding the interior wall and an internal compartment defined by the membrane system, wherein fluid permeability of the interior wall is responsive to osmolarity of an osmotic core within the internal compartment are disclosed. A controlled release dosage form comprising the membrane system and a process for delivering an osmotically active formulation from an osmotic pump over an extended period of time are also disclosed.

Disclosed herein is a oral extended release dosage form comprising a plurality of granules of an effective amount of a pharmaceutically active compound, at least one amino acid, and an intragranular polymer in which the granule is dispersed within a hydrophilic extragranular polymer matrix which is more rapidly hydrating than the intragranular polymer. The amino acid is selected for hydropathy characteristics depending on solubility characteristics of the active compound.

The present invention is directed to oral, therapeutically effective modified release pharmaceutical compositions of (−)-17-(cyclobutylmethyl)morphinan-3,14-diol and it pharmaceutically acceptable salts and the use thereof, including delayed onset and extended release dosage forms. The present invention is also directed at modified release dosage forms of oral (−)-17-(cyclobutylmethyl)morphinan-3,14-diol which provide robust efficacy and reduced potential for abuse and misuse.

Provided are pharmaceutical formulations comprising sustained release particles each having an inner core bead comprising an active pharmaceutical ingredient an intermediate coating substantially surrounding the inner core bead, and an outer coating substantially surrounding the intermediate coating comprising a pH independent polymer. Also provided is a pharmaceutical formulation comprising two bead populations wherein each of the first and second bead populations have a different drug release profile. Also provided is a method of preparing an extended release dosage composition comprising one or more bead populations.

A method for treating a patient having ASD is disclosed. The method includes administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of an alpha-2 adrenergic agonist in an extended release dosage form in combination with a therapeutically effective amount of inositol.

The present invention relates to extended-release pharmaceutical compositions comprising pregabalin or a salt thereof, which are adapted to release the pregabalin active ingredient according to a dual release profile. The formulations comprise two components, the first (fast ER) providing extended-release of the active ingredient in a short controlled manner lasting from about 4 to about 6 hours, and the second (slow ER or maintenance) providing extended release of the active ingredient over a period of 24 hours. The proportion of each component in the formulation may be adjusted to achieve the desired AUC and therapeutic effect following oral administration to a subject. The invention further relates to methods of using the pharmaceutical compositions for treating conditions and disorders which are responsive to pregabalin treatment, such as neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), post herpetic neuralgia (PHN), epilepsy, seizures and fibromyalgia.

A method for treating a patient having P.R.I.C.E. Syndrome is disclosed. The method includes administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of an alpha-2 adrenergic agonist in an extended release dosage form.
