Embodiment 1

[0083] Entacapone / levodopa / carbidopa 200 / 100 / 25 mg tablets containing different excipients prepared by different methods were tested after a single oral administration to 15 healthy volunteers Peng, levodopa and carbidopa absorption. Tablets were prepared by wet granulation of all active ingredients simultaneously (Formulation 1), and compaction granulation of all active ingredients simultaneously (Formulation 2). The formulations are listed in Table 1.

[0084] The purpose of the absorption study was to evaluate the absorption of the active substance between two fixed-dose combination tablets and entacapone 200mg tablets administered together with levodopa / carbidopa 100 / 25mg tablets , the latter being SINEMET PLUS(R), marketed in Europe by DuPont Pharmaceuticals Ltd. The study was conducted according to an open randomized crossover design. Plasma entacapone, levodopa, and carbidopa concentrations were determined using two separate reversed-phase HPLC methods, that is, enta...

Embodiment 2

[0088] Examples of suitable entacapone / levodopa / carbidopa 200 / 100 / 25 mg tablets are described in Table 2. Tablets were prepared by adding carbidopa separately in granulated form (formulation 3) and in powder form itself (formulation 4) to the formulation. Therefore, to prepare formulation 3, entacapone and levodopa were wet granulated with corn starch, mannitol, croscarmellose sodium and povidone in a conventional high shear mixer . Carbidopa was wet granulated with corn starch, mannitol, croscarmellose sodium and povidone in a conventional high shear mixer. Mix the dry entacapone / levodopa granules, dry carbidopa granules, croscarmellose sodium, mannitol and magnesium stearate together, compress the resultant into oval tablets, and use Pigment-containing HPMC-coating agent coating. Formulation 4 was prepared similarly to Formulation 3, but with the addition of carbidopa itself in powder form.

[0089] Formulations 3 and 4 were tested for absorption in 15 healthy volunteers...

Embodiment 3

[0096] Prepare formulations 5 and 6 shown in Table 3 below according to formulation 3, but use 200mg / 50mg / 12.5mg (preparation 5) and 200mg / 150mg / 37.5mg (preparation 6) of entacapone / levodopa / carba Bidoba. Correspondingly, 200 mg / 100 mg / 10 mg of entacapone / levodopa / carbidopa were also prepared.

[0097] ingredient name

[0098] The tablet cores are coated with a colored HPMC-coating agent with a weight gain of 2-3%.
