A controlled release pharmaceutical formulation which undergoes substantially or approaches zero order release of active drug is provided, preferably in the form of a coated tablet, containing a core portion from which medicament, such as procainamide hydrochloride, is slowly released over a controlled length of time The core also includes one or more primary hydrocolloid gelling agents which is a hydropropylmethyl cellulose having a viscosity of within the range of from about 1,000 to about 6,000 centipoises in 2% solution at 20° C, and a methoxyl content of 28-30%, optionally a secondary hydrocarbon gelling agent, such as hydroxypropyl cellulose and/or methyl cellulose, one or more non-swellable binders and/or wax binders (where the medicament and/or hydrocolloid gelling agents are non-compressible), one or more inert fillers or excipients, one or more lubricants, and optionally one or more anti-adherents such as silicon dioxide and water The above-described core is coated with a pharmaceutical coating composition containing a hydrophobic polymer and a hydrophilic polymer

Controlled release formulation

A pharmaceutical composition has a blend of at least first and second components and a medicament in a sufficient amount to be therapeutic where the first component is hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC) and the second component is at least one other polymer selected from the group consisting of methylcellulose (MC), ethylhydroxyethylcellulose (EHEC), hydroxyethylmethylcellulose (HEMC), hydrophobically modified hydroxyethylcellulose (HMHEC), hydrophobically modified ethylhydroxyethylcellulose (HMEHEC), carboxymethylhydroxyethylcellulose (CMHEC), carboxymethyl hydrophobically modified hydroxyethylcellulose (CMHMHEC), guar, pectin, carrageenan, agar, algin, gellan gum, acacia, starch and modified starches, co-polymers of carboxyvinyl monomers, co-polymers of acrylate or methacrylate monomers, mono- and co-polymers of oxyethylene and oxypropylene and mixtures thereof and a medicament in a sufficient amount to be therapeutic, with the proviso that low-substituted hydroxypropylcellulose (L-HPC) is excluded from said first and second components. The medicament can be a variety of drugs or nutritional supplements. The pharmaceutical composition releases the medicament for a prolonged or sustained period of time and can be formulated into many dosage forms.

Sustained release polymer blend for pharmaceutical applications

A novel sustained release formulation for the preparation of tablets for oral administration is disclosed. The formulation is hydrodynamically balanced to be buoyant in gastric juice thereby remaining in the stomach for an extended period of time.

Novel sustained release tablet formulations

A controlled-release composition comprising a drug-containing core coated with a coating composition containing a water-insoluble substance and a swellable polymer having no basic groups which is capable of maintaining an almost constant drug concentration in plasma over an extended period of time to ensure sustained drug action in the body.

Controlled release composition

The invention relates to a novel pharmaceutical sustained release formulation of guaifenesin and at least one additional drug ingredient. The formulation may comprise a hydrophilic polymer, preferably a hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, and a water-insoluble polymer, preferably an acrylic resin, in a ratio range of about one-to-one (1:1) to about nine-to-one (9:1), more preferably a range of about three-to-two (3:2) to about six-to-one (6:1), and most preferably in a range of about two-to-one (2:1) to about four-to-one (4:1) by weight. This formulation capable of providing therapeutically effective bioavailability of guaifenesin for at least twelve hours after dosing in a human subject. The invention also relates to a modified release product which has two portions: a first portion having an immediate release formulation of guaifenesin and a second portion having a sustained release formulation of guaifenesin, wherein one or both portions has at least one additional drug ingredient. The modified release product has a maximum guaifenesin serum concentration equivalent to that of an immediate release guaifenesin tablet, and is capable of providing therapeutically effective bioavailability of guaifenesin for at least twelve hours after dosing in a human subject.
