Title:
COMPOSITIONS WITH CONTROLLED DRUG RELEASE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2002/066004
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Compositions with controlled drug release comprising a water-soluble polymer, an enteric polymer, an additive showing an alkaline pH value when suspended or dissolved in water and a drug. From these compositions, a drug can be hardly eluted in the stomach but released under control in the lower parts of the digestive tracts (lower part of the small intestine, the large intestine, etc.) while not so largely affected by pH changes. Thus, these compositions are characterized by being capable of delivering a drug selectively to the lower part of the small intestine and the large intestine.
