It is possible to efficiently and safely produce in a short amount of time fine particles with which absorption of a poorly water-soluble drug that is poorly absorbed in humans, and the like can be improved, and a pharmaceutical preparation with excellent dispersion stability can be provided, by using the fine particles of the present invention having an improved dissolution profile. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20080199522 | TIMED-RELEASE COMPRESSION-COATED SOLID COMPOSITION FOR ORAL ADMINISTRATION - The present invention was completed based on these discoveries and relates to in a hydrogel-forming compression-coated solid pharmaceutical preparation comprising a core tablet containing drug and outer layer made from hydrogel-forming polymer substance and hydrophilic base, the improvement, a timed-release compression-coated solid composition for oral administration, said composition comprising (1) drug and freely erodible filler are mixed with the core tablet, (2) the percentage erosion of the core tablet is approximately 40 to approximately 90%, and (3) the outer layer essentially does not contain the same drug as the above-mentioned drug. By releasing a drug after a specific lag time, it becomes possible to effectively deliver a drug to a specific site in the digestive tract. It is therefore useful as presented as a timed-release solid composition for oral administration of a drug that is to be effectively delivered in high concentrations to the afflicted site in the lower digestive tract, a drug that is to be effectively absorbed in the lower digestive tract, a drug that is effective for chronopharmacotherapy, etc. | 08-21-2008 |
