Appl. No.:

11/693059

Inventors:

Lawrence Solomon - Boca Raton FL, US

Assignee:

ACCU-BREAK Technologies, Inc. - Plantation FL

International Classification:

A61K 9/20
A61K 9/44

A61K 9/24

US Classification:

424464, 424465, 424467, 424468, 424472, 424473

Abstract:

An immediate release compressed pharmaceutical tablet that has two or more segments and a top and a bottom and has a height that exceeds the width of the tablet. The height is measured vertically from the top to the bottom of the tablet while it is in the tablet die in which it is fully compressed, after compression has been completed. The width is measured as the greatest horizontal dimension of the tablet at a location halfway between the top and the bottom of the tablet, except that when the horizontal cross-section of the tablet is substantially rectangular, the width is defined by locating the two shorter sides of the perimeter of the horizontal cross-section, and measuring the length of a line that is at right angle to the shorter sides.

US Classification:

424467, 424 101, 424 102, 424464

Abstract:

The invention provides a novel “separation marking” on a tablet as a means for assisting in the identification of a region on the tablet that is desired to be able to be broken from time to time. Said breaking allows production of smaller dosage forms known herein as tablettes. In a preferred embodiment, the separation mark will be a printed mark that is made on the tablet surface.

Abstract:

Described is a compressed multiple layer pharmaceutical tablet that has a height that exceeds the width of the tablet. The height is measured vertically from the top to the bottom of the tablet while it is in the tablet die in which it is fully compressed, after compression has been completed. The width is measured as the greatest horizontal dimension of the tablet at a location halfway between the top and the bottom of the tablet, except that when the horizontal cross-section of the tablet is substantially rectangular, the width is defined by locating the two shorter sides of the perimeter of the horizontal cross-section, and measuring the length of a line that is at right angle to the shorter sides. The layers can form a segment or, preferably, more than one segment.
