Claims79
A method for producing an oral medication comprising:
- dispensing a structural material, said structural material including one of a polymer or a gelatin;
- curing said structural material;
- and
- dispensing a jettable pharmaceutical solution onto said cured structural material.
A system for producing an oral medication comprising:
- a structural material, said structural material including one of a polymer or a gelatin;
- and
- a jettable pharmaceutical solution jetted onto said structural material.
A system for producing a slow release oral dosage of medication comprising:
- a first layer of structural material, said structural material including one of a polymer or a gelatin;
- a first inkjet material dispenser disposed adjacent to said structural material;
- said inkjet material dispenser being configured to dispense a jettable pharmaceutical formulation onto said structural material;
- and
- a second inkjet material dispenser disposed adjacent to said structural material;
- said second inkjet material dispenser being configured to deposit a second layer of structural material onto said jettable pharmaceutical formulation.
A method for forming a slow release dosage of oral medication comprising:
- disposing a first layer of polymer based structural material adjacent to an inkjet dispenser;
- jetting a jettable pharmaceutical solution onto said polymer based structural material with said inkjet dispenser;
- and
- dispensing a second layer of polymer based structural material over said jettable pharmaceutical solution.
A system for producing an oral medication comprising:
- a polymer based structural means for supporting a pharmaceutical solution;
- and
- a jettable pharmaceutical solution jetted onto said polymer based structural means.
A jettable fluid for forming a slow release oral dosage of medication between two layers of structural material comprising:
- an oral drug component;
- and
- an edible jettable vehicle component combined with said oral drug component.
