| Title: | Vigabatrin liquid pharmaceutical composition |
| Abstract: | The embodiments of the present invention relate to a stable liquid vigabatrin pharmaceutical compositions in the liquid form of a solution. Particularly, the stable vigabatrin liquid pharmaceutical composition is manufactured as a ready-to-use industrialized premixture that does not require reconstitution or dilution prior to administration to a patient. The vigabatrin liquid pharmaceutical composition is stable six months or longer at room temperature and has levels of total impurities and Vigabatrin-related compound A that are both not more than 0.04% at, or prior to, six months. In some embodiments, the composition has improved stability and patient compliance. In some embodiments, the compositions may be advantageous for the patients having swallowing difficulties or when the patients are unable to take solid oral dosage forms. In some embodiments, the composition improves compliance with ketogenic diet. |
