Benefits of technology

[0015]The extended release suspension compositions of the present invention are easy to administer, thereby leading to enhanced patient compliance. Further, said extended release suspension compositions provide better dose flexibility depending on the age and body weight of the ...

Problems solved by technology

However, extended release solid compositions suffer from certain drawbacks such as difficulty in swallowing, particularly for certain groups of patients, e.g., pediatrics and geriatrics, resulting in poor patient compliance.
Further, high doses of active ingredient lead to large-sized compositions which aggravates this problem.
Also, there remains a tendency to divide extended release solid compositions such as tablets into small pieces in order to facilitate administration, which may ultimately lead to inaccurate dosing and/or dose dumping.
Although ...

Abstract

The present invention relates to extended release suspension compositions of an active ingredient. Said extended release suspension compositions comprise multiple coated cores of the active ingredient and a suspension base, wherein the suspension base generates a hypertonic condition such that there is no substantial change in the in-vitro dissolution release profile of the extended release suspension compositions upon storage for at least seven days. The invention also relates to processes for the preparation of said extended release suspension compositions.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to extended release suspension compositions of an active ingredient. Said extended release suspension compositions comprise multiple coated cores of the active ingredient and a suspension base, wherein the suspension base generates a hypertonic condition such that there is no substantial change in the in-vitro dissolution release profile of the extended release suspension compositions upon storage for at least seven days. The invention also relates to processes for the preparation of said extended release suspension compositions.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Extended release solid compositions are preferred dosage forms over immediate release solid compositions, especially for active ingredients showing fluctuations in the plasma concentration and for active ingredients having short half-lives. Extended release solid compositions can be in the form of tablets or capsules, wherein the release of the active ingredient is con...
