LUVOX CR is an extended-release capsule for oral administration that contains fluvoxamine maleate, a selective serotonin (5-HT) reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) belonging to the chemical series, the 2-aminoethyl oxime ethers of aralkylketones.
Divalproex sodium is a stable co-ordination compound comprised of sodium valproate and valproic acid in a 1:1 molar relationship and formed during the partial neutralization of valproic acid with 0.5 equivalent of sodium hydroxide. Chemically it is designated as sodium hydrogen bis(2-propylpentanoate). Divalproex sodium has the following structure:
CREON® 20 Capsules are orally administered and contain pancrelipase (lipase 20,000 USP Units, protease 75,000 USP Units and amylase 66,400 USP Units per capsule) which is of porcine pancreatic origin. Each CREON 20 (pancrelipase delayed-released capsules) Capsule is filled with 497 mg of delayed-release MINIMICROSPHERES®.
Each Pseudovent™ 400 (pseudoephedrine hcl extended-release and guaifenesin) 12-hour Capsule contains in combination:
The barbiturates are nonselective central nervous system (CNS) depressants that are primarily used as sedative hypnotics. In subhypnotic doses, they are also used as anticonvulsants. The barbiturates and their sodium salts are subject to control under the Federal Controlled Substances Act.
The active ingredient in DIPENTUM Capsules (olsalazine sodium) is the sodium salt of a salicylate, disodium 3,3'-azobis (6-hydroxybenzoate) a compound that is effectively bioconverted to 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), which has anti-inflammatory activity in ulcerative colitis. Its empirical formula is C14H8N2N2O6 with a molecular weight of 346.21.
Paromomycin sulfate (paromomycin sulfate (paromomycin sulfate capsules) capsules) is a broad spectrum antibiotic produced by Streptomyces riomosus var. paromomycinus. It is a white, amorphous, stable, water-soluble product.
