Patent ID: 10933024

Abstract:
The invention relates to a pH-dependent controlled release pharmaceutical composition, comprising at least one pharmaceutical active ingredient, with the exception of opioids, wherein the core is coated at least by one coating layer, controlling the release of the pharmaceutical composition, wherein the coating layer comprises a polymer mixture of i) 40-95% by weight, based on dry weight of the polymer mixture, of at least one water insoluble essentially neutral vinyl polymer or copolymer, and ii) 5-60% by weight, based on dry weight of the polymer mixture, of at least one anionic polymer or copolymer, which is insoluble in a buffered medium below pH 4.0 and soluble at least in the range from pH 7.0 to pH 8.0, characterized in that the coating layer further comprises 110 to 250% by weight of a non-porous inert lubricant, 1 to 35% by weight of at least one neutral cellulosic compound and 1 to 25% by weight of at least one emulsifier, each calculated on dry weight of the polymer mixture.
