US Patent:

6482823, Nov 19, 2002

Filed:

Jun 21, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/598157

Inventors:

Danny Yu - Somervile NJ
Edward Roche - Paoli PA

Assignee:

Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical, Inc. - Raritan NJ

International Classification:

A61K 31535

US Classification:

5142288, 5142302, 424489, 424497, 424494

Abstract:

A liquid composition for oral administration comprising a pharmaceutically active medicament coated with a taste masking effective amount of a polymer blend of (a) dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate and neutral methacrylic acid ester (MM/MAE) and (b) a cellulose ester, in an aqueous vehicle, wherein the polymer weight ratio of the cellulose ester to the MM/MAE is about 40:60 to about 90:10, preferably about 60:40. The liquid composition utilizes a âreverse enteric coatingâ which is soluble in the acid pHs of the stomach, generally about 1. 0 to 4. 0, but relatively insoluble at the non-acidic pHs of the mouth. The coatings provide for rapid release and absorption of the drug, which is generally desirable in the case of liquid dosage forms.

A61J 300

US Classification:

427 214

Abstract:

A method of making solid oral dosage form for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmaceutical suitable for the treatment of gastric disorders selected from the group consisting of cimetidine, ranitidine, famotidine, diphenoxylate, loperamide, loperamide-N-oxide, pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof and combinations thereof; and a therapeutically effective amount of simethicone wherein the pharmaceutical and simethicone are separated by a barrier. The barrier is formed by coating with a polymer impermeable to simethicone.
