Abstract From the Canadian patent

The tablets of the invention comprise a compound which melts at about 37~C or lower, have a low hardness, high stability and generally comprise few insoluble disintegrants which may cause a gritty or chalky sensation in the mouth. Convenient and economically feasible processes by which the tablets of the invention may be produced are also provided.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed August 19, 2004 and granted June 5, 2012. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended August 19, 2024.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by August 19, 2026.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
