`Die Verbindungen der Formel (l) wurden an Versuchstieren unter-
`sucht und es zeigte sich, daB sie Aktivitaten aof dem psycho-
`tropen Gebiet ols potentielle Antidepressionsmittel aufwiesen.
`Dies© Aktivitaten wurden durcH die nachfolgend beschriebenen
`Tests nachgewiesen:
`
`Test A
`Potenzierung von generellem Zittern bei der Maus, hervorgerufen
`durch eine intraperitoneale Injektion (200 mg/kg) von dl-5-
`Hydroxyt ryptop ha n nach dem von C. Gouret und G« Raynaud in
`"J. Pharmacol.'(Paris)", 1974, 5, 231, beschriebenen Versuch.
`
`Test B
`Antagonismus gegenUber Ptosis, die 1 Stunde nach der intraveniJsen
`Injektion (2 mg/kg) von Resorpin bei dex Maus beobachtet wurde,
`nach dem von C. Gouret und J. Thomas in "J* Phaimacol. (Paris)"/
`1973, 4, 401, beschriebenen Versuch.
`
`Test C
`Verminderung der Dichte der Hinterhaupt-Pontogenicul-Punkte
`(P.G.O*), hervorgerufen duxch eine intravenose Injektion (0,5 mg/«
`kg) von Resorpin bei der Katze nach dem von von A. Coston und
`C. Gouret in "J. Pharmacol. (Paris)", 1976, 7, 409, beschriebenen
`Versuch.

`Wie aus den in den vorstehenden Tabellen angegebenen Ergebnissen
`hervorgeht, haben die erfindungsgemaBen Verbindungen der Formel
`(l) eine Aktivitat (Wirksamkeit), die derjenigen der Vergleichs-
`verbindung Uberlegen oder zumindest gleich ist. Sie sind indi-
`ziert bei endogenen und exogenen depressiven Zustanden und sie
`kiJnnen auf oralem Wege in Form von Tabletten, Dragees, Kapseln,
`in einer mittleren Dosis von 500 rag aktivem Prinzip pro Tag
`verabreicht werden. Sie kSnnen auch in Form von injizierbaren
`LSsungen in einer Menge von 5 bis 50 mg aktivem Prinzip pro Tag
`verabreicht werden, wobei das verwendete LKsimgsmitiel aus bi-
`ntlren oder ternSren Mischungen besteht, die beispielsWeise
`Wasser, Polypropylenglykol oder Poly<3thylenglykol (Sorte 300
`bis 400) oder irgendein anderes physiologisch vertragliches LS-
`sungsmittel enthalten; die relativen Mengenverhaltnisse der
`verschiedenen Lbsungsmittel werden in AbhBngigkeit von der ver-
`abreichten Dosis eingestellt*

`
`SPECIFICATION
`Osmotic Device With Dual Thermodynamic Activity
`
`This invention pertains to both a novel and unique delivery system. More particularly, the
`invention relates to an osmotic device comprising a wall formed in at least a part of a semi-permeable
`5 material that surrounds a compartment comprising: (1) a first osmotic composition comprising a
`beneficial agent, and preferably an osmagent and/or an osmopolyer, said composition in contacting
`arrangement with (2) a second osmotic composition comprising an osmagent and an osmopolymer. A
`passageway through the wall connects the exterior of the osmotic device with the first osmotic
`composition containing the beneficial agent for delivering the first composition from the osmotic
`10 device. The osmotic device is useful for delivering beneficial agents that because of their solubilities are 10
`difficult to deliver in a known amount at a controlled rate from an osmotic dispensing system.
`

`

`
`Background of the Invention
`Since the beginning of antiquity, both pharmacy and medicine have sought a delivery system for
`administering a beneficial drug. The first written reference to a dosage form is in the Eber Papyrus,
`15 written about 1 552 B.C. The Eber Papyrus mentions dosage forms such as anal suppositories, vaginal
`pessaries, ointments, oral pill formulations, and other dosage preparations. About 2500 years passed
`without any advance in dosage form development, when the Arab physician Rhazes, 865—925 A.D.,
`invented the coated pill. About a century later the Persian Avicenna, 980—1037 A.D., coated pills with
`gold or silver for increasing patient acceptability and for enhancing the effectiveness of the drug. Also
`20 around this time, the first tablet was described in Arabian manuscrips written by al-Zahrawi, 936—
`1009 A.D. The manuscrips described a tablet formed from the hollow impressions in two facing tablet
`molds. Pharmacy and medicine waited about 800 years for the next innovation in dosage forms, when
`in 1883 Mothes invented the capsule for administering drug. The next quantum leap in dosage forms
`came in 1972 with the invention of the osmotic delivery device by inventors Theeuwes and Higuchi as
`25 disclosed in United States Pat. Nos. 3,845,770 and 3,916,899. The osmotic devices disclosed in those
`patents comprise a semi-permeable wall that surrounds a compartment containing a useful agent. The
`wall is permeable to the passage of an external fluid, and it is substantially impermeable to the passage
`of useful agent. There is a passageway through the wall for delivering the useful agent from the
`osmotic device. These devices release useful agent by fluid being imbibed through the semi-permeable
`30 wall into the compartment at a rate determined by the permeability of the semi-permeable wall and the
`osmotic pressure gradient across the semi-permeable wall to produce an aqueous solution containing
`useful agent that is dispensed through the passageway from the device. These devices are
`extraordinarily effective for delivering a useful agent that is soluble in the fluid and exhibits an osmotic
`pressure gradient across the semi-permeable wall against the external fluid.
`A pioneer advancement in osmotic delivery devices was presented to the dispensing arts by
`inventor Felix Theeuwes In United States Patent No. 4,111,202. In this patent, the delivery kinetics of
`the osmotic device is enhanced for delivering useful agents that are insoluble to very soluble in the
`fluid, by manufacturing the osmotic device with a useful agent compartment and an osmagent
`compartment separated by a film. The film is movable from a rested to an expanded state. The osmotic
`40 device delivers agent by fluid being imbibed through the semi-permeable wall into the osmagent
`compartment producing a solution that causes the compartment to increase in volume and act as a
`driving force that is applied against the film. This force urges the film to expand against the useful
`agent compartment and correspondingly diminish the volume of the useful agent compartment,
`whereby useful agent is dispensed through the passageway from the osmotic device. While this device
`45 operates successfully for its intended use, and while it can deliver numerous useful agents of varying
`solubilities, its use can be limited because of the manufacturing steps and costs needed for fabricating
`and placing the movable film in the compartment of the osmotic device.
`In United States Patent No. 4,327,725 patentees Richard Cortese and Felix Theeuwes provided
`an osmotic dispensing device for delivering beneficial agents, that because of their solubilities in
`50 aqueous and biological fluids, are difficult to deliver in meaningful amounts at controlled rates over
`time. The osmotic devices of this patent comprise a semi-permeable wall surrounding a compartment
`containing a beneficial agent that is insoluble to very soluble in aqueous and biological fluids, and an
`expandable hydrogel. In operation the hydrogel expands in the presence of external fluid that enters the
`device thereby causing the beneficial agent to be dispensed through the passageway from the device.
`55 This device operates successfully for its intended use, and it delivers many difficult to deliver beneficial
`agents for their intended purpose. Now it has been observed, its use can be limited because the
`hydrogel lacks a present ability to imbibe sufficient fluid for the maximum self-expansion needed for
`.
`urging the beneficial agent from the device.
`ft will be appreciated by those versed in the dispensing art, that if an osmotic device can be
`60 provided that exhibits a high level of osmotic activity for delivering a beneficial agent by generating in
`situ an expanding force sufficient for delivering the maximum amount of agent at a controlled rate from
`an osmotic device, such an osmotic device would have a positive value and represent an advancement
`in the dispensing art. Likewise, it will be immediately appreciated by those versed in the dispensing art
`

`that if an osmotic device is made available possessing dual thermodynamic osmotic activity for
`delivering increased amounts of a beneficial agent, said osmotic device would find practical application
`in the fields of pharmacy and medicine.

`
`Another object of the invention is to provide an osmotic system manufactured in the form of an
`osmotic device for delivering in vivo a beneficial drug that is difficult to deliver and now can be
`delivered by the osmotic device provided by this invention in therapeutically effective amounts over
`time.
`Another object of the invention is to provide an osmotic system possessing dual osmotic activity,
`which system comprises a compartment containing a first osmotic composition comprising a drug, and
`preferably an osmagent and/or an osmopolymer, and a second osmotic composition comprising an
`osmagent and an osmopolymer, with the compositions acting in concert for delivering the drug from
`the osmotic device.
`Yet another object of the invention is to provide an osmotic device having means for high loading
`of a water-insoluble or a slightly water-soluble drug and means for delivering the drug in either
`instance at a controlled rate and continuously over time.
`Yet another object of the invention is to provide an osmotic device that can deliver a pH
`dependent beneficial agent by providing a neutral medium for delivering the beneficial agent in a finely
`dispersed form for increasing its surface area and for maximizing
