Title: Process for preparing quick dissolving, high loading ribavirin compositions
Inventor: MATHARU AMOL SINGH
IPC: A61K31/7056
Filed: 2002-10-31
Abstract: A quick dissolving, high loading ribavirin composition which is essentially free of ribavirin polymorphic forms, said composition is prepared by a proce ss comprising: (a) mixing ribavirin, at least one disintegrant and/or at least one filler to form an homogenous mixture; (b) granulating the mixture in the presence of water to form a granulation; (c) drying the granulation; and (d) mixing at least one disintegrant and/or at least one lubricant with the granulation to produce a ribavirin composition, wherein said ribavirin composition comprises at least 80 weight percent of ribavirin, based on the total weight of the composition. The ribavirin compositions prepared by the wet granulation process of the invention are free flowing and have adequate bulk density for processing into capsules. In addition, the ribavirin compositions contain at least 80 weight percent of ribavirin. Furthermore, t he ribavirin compositions are substantially free of polymorphic forms of ribavirin, i.e., there are no signs of polymorphic change in ribavirin as determined by infrared spectrophotometry.

Abstract: The fluid-filled retractable vehicle restrictor can be used where it is impractical to use a traditional speed bump, for improved traffic management and the prevention of vehicular collisions. The invention uses fluid to control the height of a retractable restriction surface in order to vary vehicle impedance. The fluid also distributes the vehicle's loading forces to static structural components rather than mechanical moving parts. Reduced stress within fewer moving components minimizes maintenance. Unlike prior art, an internal fluid transfer mechanism allows the height of the restriction surface to be set independently of the vehicle's presence. Maintaining a specific geometrical shape of the restriction surface during tire traversal gives the invention another parameter of vehicle impedance because various restriction surface shapes can harden or soften the impact to the vehicle's tires. The invention also warns an approaching vehicle operator of activated impedance through visible or illuminative indicators.
