In this embodiment, the method of producing the tablet core comprises the steps of: (1) hydrating the aliphatic amine polymer to the desired moisture level; (2) blending the aliphatic amine polymer with the excipients in amounts such that the polymer comprises at least about 95% by weight of the resulting blend; and (3) compressing the blend to form the tablet core. The present invention further relates to a coated tablet comprising an aliphatic amine polymer core wherein the coating is a water based coating.

  • Patent number: 9850252
    Abstract: The presently described technology provides compositions comprising aryl carboxylic acids and, for example NSAIDs, chemically conjugated to oxycodone (4,5-?-epoxy-14-hydroxy-17-methylmorphinan-6-one) to form novel prodrugs/compositions of oxycodone, including benzoates, salicylates, propionates, fenamates, and acetates, which have a decreased potential for abuse of oxycodone. The present technology also provides methods of treating patients, pharmaceutical kits and methods of synthesizing conjugates of the present technology.
