Abstract

Any pharmaceutical preparation for oral administration with controlled release of active ingredient in the small bowel, on the basis of active ingredient carriers provided with at least one active ingredient which are provided with an inner layer to control the release of active ingredient and with a gastro-resistant coating layer disposed thereon, which is characterized in that the inner layer is formed from at least two diffusion layers whose permeability for the diffusing active ingredient decreases from the inside to the outside, and a method for the production thereof, are described.

Claims (8)

1. A pharmaceutical preparation for oral administration with controlled release of active ingredient in the small bowel comprising:

a) active ingredient carriers comprising (1R,3r,5S)-3-[(hydroxydiphenylacetyl)oxy]spiro[8-azoniabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-8,1′-pyrrolidinium]chloride as the active agent, and optionally a binder, buffer substances, a plasticizer and/or an antitack agent;

b) an inner layer coated on the active ingredient carriers to control the release of active ingredient comprising:

i) a first diffusion layer comprising polyvinyl acetate as the matrix material and polyvinyl alcohol-polyethylene glycol copolymers as the pore former, and optionally a plasticizer and/or an antitack agent; and

ii) a second diffusion layer comprising polyvinyl acetate as the matrix material and polyvinyl alcohol-polyethylene glycol copolymers as the pore former present in an amount less than the amount of pore former used in the first diffusion layer, and optionally a plasticizer and/or an antitack agent; and

c) optionally, a gastro-resistant coating layer disposed thereon,

wherein the permeability for the diffusing active ingredient decreases from the inside to the outside; and

wherein <75% of the active agent of the pharmaceutical preparation is released in 60 minutes releasing the active agent at a constant rate.
