Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1591107A1] The present invention provides a process for a selective increase of a release rate in a later stage of the release period of an active material from a controlled release pharmaceutical composition comprising an active material and a lipid material embedding said active material, comprising the step of:adding a swellable organic disintegrant selected from the group consisting of potato starch, maize starch, wheat starch, tapioca starch, pregelatinized starch, physically modified amylose, modified potato starch, amylopectin, sodium starch glycolate, sodium amylopectin glycolate, croscarmellose sodium, carmellose calcium, calcium alginate, crosslinked dextran and formaldehyde-casein, in an amount of 3 to 20 percent by weight, based on the entire weight of the controlled release pharmaceutical composition, to a lipophilic matrix comprising an active material embedded in a lipid material; and a controlled release pharmaceutical composition having such a modified release profile comprising an active material, a lipid material embedding said active material, and a swellable organic disintegrant mentioned above, in an amount of 3 to 20 percent by weight.
