Abstract

A solid dose composition comprising at least one pharmaceutically active ingredient and at least one controlled release agent and method of manufacturing said composition is disclosed. The burst profile of at least one pharmaceutically active ingredient in the composition is regulated by the apparent viscosity of the controlled release agent and wherein at least one pharmaceutically active ingredient is processed by wet granulation.

Claims (33)

1 . A solid dose composition comprising ibuprofen,

wherein the composition consists of two layers: an extended release layer and an immediate release layer, and optionally a coating;

wherein the immediate release layer consists essentially of about 200 mg of ibuprofen, croscarmellose sodium as a disintegration agent, more than one starch, one or more lubricant and one or more glidant;

wherein the extended release layer consists essentially of a blend of (i) a preblend consisting of k100LV grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, microcrystalline cellulose and colloidal silicon dioxide; (ii) a milled wet granulation consisting of about 400 mg of ibuprofen, k100LV grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, and microcrystalline cellulose; and (iii) stearic acid;

wherein the k grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose is between 20%-25% of the extended release layer;

wherein both the immediate release layer and extended release layer are separately prepared using wet granulation;

wherein said wet granulation is performed in a liquid consisting of water;

wherein the immediate release layer and extended release layer have been sequentially added to a tablet mold, pressed into a tablet and then optionally coated.

2 . A method of manufacturing a solid dose composition comprising ibuprofen,

wherein the composition consists of two layers: an extended release layer and an immediate release layer, and optionally a coating;

wherein the immediate release layer consists essentially of about 200 mg of ibuprofen, croscarmellose sodium as a disintegration agent, more than one starch, one or more lubricant and one or more glidant;

wherein the extended release layer consists essentially of a blend of (i) a preblend consisting of k100LV grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, microcrystalline cellulose and colloidal silicon dioxide; (ii) a milled wet granulation consisting of about 400 mg of ibuprofen, k100LV grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, and microcrystalline cellulose; and (iii) stearic acid;

wherein the k grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose is between 20%-25% of the extended release layer;

wherein both the immediate release layer and extended release layer are separately prepared using wet granulation;

wherein said wet granulation is performed in a liquid consisting of water;

wherein the immediate release layer and extended release layer are sequentially added to a tablet mold, pressed into a tablet and then optionally coated.

3 . A solid dose composition comprising ibuprofen,

wherein the composition consists of two layers: an extended release layer and an immediate release layer, and optionally a coating;

wherein the immediate release layer consists of about 200 mg of ibuprofen, croscarmellose sodium as a disintegration agent, more than one starch, one or more lubricant and one or more glidant;

wherein the extended release layer consists essentially of a blend of (i) a preblend consisting of k100LV grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, microcrystalline cellulose and colloidal silicon dioxide; (ii) a milled wet granulation consisting of about 400 mg of ibuprofen, k100LV grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, and microcrystalline cellulose; and (iii) stearic acid;

wherein the k grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose is between 20%-25% of the extended release layer;

wherein both the immediate release layer and extended release layer are separately prepared using wet granulation;

wherein said wet granulation is performed in a liquid consisting of water;

wherein the immediate release layer and extended release layer have been sequentially added to a tablet mold, pressed into a tablet and then optionally coated.

wherein both the immediate release layer and extended release layer are separately prepared using wet granulation performed in a liquid consisting of water.

4 . A method of manufacturing a solid dose composition comprising ibuprofen,

wherein the composition consists of two layers: an extended release layer and an immediate release layer, and optionally a coating;

wherein the immediate release layer consists essentially of about 200 mg of ibuprofen, croscarmellose sodium as a disintegration agent, more than one starch, one or more lubricant and one or more glidant;

wherein the extended release layer consists of a blend of (i) a preblend consisting of k100LV grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, microcrystalline cellulose and colloidal silicon dioxide; (ii) a milled wet granulation consisting of about 400 mg of ibuprofen, k100LV grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, and microcrystalline cellulose; and (iii) stearic acid;

wherein the k grade hydroxypropylmethylcellulose is between 20%-25% of the extended release layer;

wherein both the immediate release layer and extended release layer are separately prepared using wet granulation;

wherein said wet granulation is performed in a liquid consisting of water;

wherein the immediate release layer and extended release layer are sequentially added to a tablet mold, pressed into a tablet and then optionally coated.
