Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A pharmaceutical composition is disclosed which comprises a solid dispersion of a pharmaceutical compound in a water soluble carrier, such as polyethylene glycol (PEG), and a crystallization inhibitor, such as polyvinylpyrrolidone or hydroxypropylmethylcellulose. The solid dispersion may optionally be encapsulated in hard gelatin capsules, compressed into a tablet, or may be granulated with a pharmaceutically acceptable granulating agent. Also disclosed are methods of making said solid dispersion and methods of treatment employing said solid dispersion.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A solid pharmaceutical composition comprising: a molecular dispersion of amorphous ritonavir in a hydrophilic matrix, comprising a water soluble carrier and an amorphous polymer. 2. The composition of claim 1 , comprising an amorphous region where said ritonavir resides. 3. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising (2S, 3S, 5S)-2-(2,6-dimethylphenoxyacetyl)-amino-3-hydroxy-5-(2S-(1-tetrahydropyrimid-2-only)-3-methyl-…
