A method for treating a recirculating water system which comprises introducing into said water system a multifunctional, multilayer tablet, wherein the multilayer tablet comprises a fast dissolving layer and a slow dissolving layer, wherein said fast dissolving layer releases a combination of active ingredients including a member selected from the group consisting of lithium hypochlorite, calcium hypochlorite, trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA), anhydrous sodium dichloroisocyanurate, sodium persulfate, potassium persulfate, potassium monopersulfate, sodium monopersulfate, and mixtures thereof, and at least one of a clarifier, chelating agent, sequesterant, algaestat, water softener, algaecide, corrosion inhibitor, scale inhibitor, flocculent, disintegrant, dispersant, colorant, dissolution control agent, fragrance, or surfactant and, wherein said slow dissolving layer includes a member selected from the group consisting of trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA), calcium hypochlorite, 1,3-dichloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DCDMH), 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DBDMH), 1-bromo-3-chloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (BCDMH), 1,3-dichloro-5-ethyl-5-methylhydantoin (DCEMH), 1,3-dibromo-5-ethyl-5-methylhydantoin (DBEMH), 1-bromo-3-chloro-5-methyl-5-ethylhydantoin (BCEMH), and mixtures thereof, and at least one of a clarifier, chelating agent, sequesterant, algaestat, water softener, algaecide, corrosion inhibitor, scale inhibitor, flocculent, disintegrant, dispersant, colorant, dissolution control agent or surfactant.

This invention pertains to a multi-layered tablet for a triple combination release of active agents to an environment of use. More particularly, the invention pertains to a multi-layered tablet (1) comprising two external drug-containing layers (2 and 3) in stacked arrangement with respect to and on opposite sides of an oral dosage form (4) that provides a triple combination release of at least one active agent. In one embodiment of the invention the dosage form is an osmotic device. In another embodiment of the invention the dosage form is a gastro-resistant coated core. In yet another embodiment of the invention the dosage form is a matrix tablet. In a different embodiment the dosage form is a hard capsule.

The invention relates to an orally-dispersible multilayer tablet and the method for production thereof.

The invention is related to a method for testing multilayer tablets in a multiple rotary press, in which die holes of a circulating die plate are successively filled with tablet material of different layers in consecutive filling devices, and the tablet material is compressed layer after layer to pressed articles having n layers by means of synchronously circulating compression punches in compression stations respectively associated to the filling devices, and the pressed articles are subsequently ejected and unloaded in a unloading station.

The present invention provides modified release pharmaceutical compositions, and methods for administering the compositions to a user, including humans. The composition may contain a combination of ingredients in proportions calculated to achieve therapeutic effect, including at least the following ingredients: one or more natural or synthetic cannabinoids, one or more release modifying agent(s), and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipient(s). The composition may be in a multi-layered solid dosage form to provide fast, controlled and also sustained release of specific ingredients. More specifically, the invention relates to modified release pharmaceutical compositions comprising cannabinoids and a process for preparation thereof. More specifically, the invention may control drug release in accordance with the therapeutic purpose and pharmacological properties of active substances.

A novel patient-convenient, cost effective pharmaceutical composition, comprising of thiazolidinediones and biguanide for controlling hyperglycemia manufactured as multilayer tablet and its process of manufacturing, for immediate release of thiazolidinediones or thiazolidinediones and biguanide and prolonged release of the biguanide only, the tablet comprising of minimum two layers wherein one outer layer comprises of a mixture of excipients and thiazolidinediones or thiazolidinediones and biguanide allowing immediate release of thiazolidinediones or thiazolidinediones and biguanide respectively and the other layer arranged in contact with the immediate release layer which comprises of a novel composition of excipients and a minimum one or more non-biodegradable, inert polymer(s) and the biguanide allowing pH independent prolonged release of the biguanide up to a period of 8-12 hours. The tablets are for once a day dosing. The tablets may optionally be film coated or enrobed by soft gelatin ribbons for additional protection against oxidation, photodegradation, identification, ease of swallowing, taste masking and for aesthetic appeal without altering the dissolution profile.
