Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008101554A1] The invention relates to pellets containing active substances and having a polymer coating and a mean particle size of between 300 and 1100 µm. Said pellets contain a pharmaceutically active substance which is integrated into a polymer matrix consisting of at least one polymer. The pellets according to the invention are characterised in that they have a maximum friability of 0.1 %, measured with 200g of pellets on a 200 m sieving machine with a sieve diameter of 20 cm and 1.5 mm of shaking amplitude at a shaking frequency of 50 1/sec for 10 min in the presence of six rubber cubes having a 1.8 cm long edge. Said pellets also have a polymer coating consisting of an anionic (meth)acrylate copolymer on the condition that, during the release test according to USP, the pellets release no more than 10 % of the active substance in the artificial gastric juice at a pH of 1.2 after 120 min.
