Abstract:
The present invention concerns a method for making an inhaled pharmaceutical composition with improved powder handling properties comprising a stearate, a method of preparing such a composition, and the use of such a stearate in a composition when dispensed into a receptacle for use in a dry powder inhaler receptacle.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of improving dispensed dosing reproducibility of an inhalable pharmaceutical formulation from an automated powder filling apparatus, comprising:\n blending a micronized pharmaceutically active material, magnesium stearate, and carrier particles to yield a blended inhalable pharmaceutical formulation, wherein the carrier particles comprise fines, wherein the fines constitute greater than 10% (w/w) of the total weight of said micronized pharmaceutically active material, magnesium stearate, and carrier particles,\n wherein said magnesium stearate has a D 10 \u22643 \u03bcm, D 50 \u226410 \u03bcm and D 90 \u226430 \u03bcm prior to blending as determined by laser diffraction particle size analysis, \n and wherein said magnesium stearate is present in amount of from 0.1% to 50% by weight out of a total weight of the micronized pharmaceutically active material, magnesium stearate and carrier particles.
