Abstract:
The present invention is a formulation of naproxen having a release profile that provides immediate pain relief equivalent to taking 440 mg (or 2 tablets of 220 mg) naproxen sodium and also extended pain relief for 24 hours. In particular, the present invention is a single solid-dose combining a unique ratio of an immediate release naproxen sodium product with an extended release naproxen sodium layer. More particularly, the present invention is a single bilayer tablet that immediately releases 300-320 mg of naproxen sodium and thereafter gradually releases 450-480 mg of naproxen sodium. This product is capable of providing 24 hours of pain relief when administered as a single bilayer tablet. The single bilayer tablet provides immediate release (IR) of naproxen sodium for initial pain relief from one layer followed by continuous release of the remaining naproxen sodium from the other layer to maintain extended pain relief up to 24 hours.

Claim (Index 1):
A modified release composition for a drug comprising:\n an immediate release (IR) layer comprising a drug and an extended release (ER) layer comprising the drug, the IR and ER layers both comprising a drug, the drug being present in the IR layer in an amount about 40% by weight of the total composition, the drug being present in the ER layer in an amount about 60% by weight of the total composition, the ER layer further comprising a polymer adapted to extend the release of the drug, the polymer being present in an amount of about 30% by weight of the ER layer, wherein the drug is naproxen or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
