384 results about "Pill" patented technology

A pill was originally defined as a small, round, solid pharmaceutical oral dosage form of medication that was in use before the advent of tablets and capsules. Pills were made by mixing the active ingredients with an excipient such as glucose syrup in a mortar and pestle to form a paste, then rolling the mass into a long cylindrical shape, and dividing it into equal portions, which were then rolled into balls, and often coated with sugar to make them more palatable. Today, pills include tablets, capsules, and variants thereof like caplets—essentially anything with medication that can be digested, minus the liquid forms, colloquially falls into the pill category. Some pills are designed to contain sensory and communication elements that collect and wirelessly transmit physiological information after being swallowed. The oldest known pills were made of the zinc carbonates hydrozincite and smithsonite. The pills were used for sore eyes, and were found aboard a Roman ship Relitto del Pozzino which wrecked in 140 BC.

Lucid ganoderma liver-protecting pill and preparation method thereof

The invention discloses a ganoderma lucidum liver-protecting pill and a preparation method thereof, and the ganoderma lucidum liver-protecting pill comprises the following components: 8-20% of ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide extract, 5-15% of coptis chinensis extract, 4-10% of pulvis fellis saponin extract, 3-8% of oriental wormwood, 2-8% of taurine, 1-3% of vitamin E and 2-6% of scleroprotein (ganoderma lucidum sclerotium extract). The auxiliary materials comprise microcrystalline cellulose, corn starch, licorice extract, polyvinyl alcohol and the like, and the balance is 100%. Therefore, the problem of ingredient inactivation caused by traditional high-temperature / solvent extraction is solved through process innovation (such as supercritical CO2 pressure 300bar / enzymolysis pH 5.0 parameter optimization), the dissolution rate is increased to be more than or equal to 90% in 30 minutes (traditional pills need 45 minutes and only 75%), the limitation of single ingredient liver protection is broken through through the synergistic effect of the composite ingredients, and the liver protection effect is improved. Animal experiments prove that a liver injury marker ALT / AST can be reduced by more than 50%, the hepatic fibrosis area can be reduced by 40%, the degradation rate of the active ingredients within 6 months in a stability test is less than or equal to 5%, and the comprehensive bioavailability is improved by 30% compared with that of a traditional product.
