Extract:

Extended release formulations for the delivery of opioid agonists, including
oxycodone, are provided which exhibit low peak to trough plasma concentration
fluctuations and sufficiently high plasma concentrations over an extended
period of time to provide a once a day dosage administration, wherein the
formulations provide pain relief for up to 24 hours. The extended release
formulations may be customized to achieve the desired plasma concentration
profile, e.g. two or more different extended release drug-loaded pellets or
granules may be combined in a formulation. Additional formulations include
combinations of drug loaded and extended release opioid agonists-loaded
pellets or granules. Other formulations include a combination of an opioid
agonist and an opioid antagonist, as well as a combination of an opioid
agonist and a NSAID.
