<p>Pharmaceutical compositions comprising metaxalone which demonstrate improved dissolution and bioavailability characteristics compared to the commercially available product, and methods of producing them are provided. In a preferred embodiment, a dosage form comprising metaxalone and at least one inactive powder excipient is bioequivalent to its commercially available counterpart (Skelaxin?? 400-mg tablets) after oral administration to fasting or non-fasting human subjects, while at the same time displaying faster drug dissolution rates than the Skelaxin?? tablets as demonstrated from three different dissolution tests. In another preferred embodiment, a dosage form comprising metaxalone, at least one inactive powder excipient and a nonvolatile liquid is significantly more bioavailable than the commercially available Skelaxin?? 400-mg tablets after oral administration to fasting human subjects.</p> |
