title: [Eurand Minitabs--the innovative application formula of a pancreatic enzyme complex (Pangrol 10,000, 25,000)].
abstract: Modern technology of solid oral drug forms, through the application of macromolecular polymers, generates a number of new formulation solutions. New technologies provide optimal parameters for the release of biologically active substances, increasing by these means pharmacotherapeutic effectiveness of a medicinal product. Basic properties of the innovative Eurand Minitabs technology, making possible the tableting of technologically and applicatively labile substances such as a pancreatic enzyme complex were dicussed. The application of encapsulated minitablets coated with a methacrylic acid copolymer guarantees an optimal range of lipase pharmacological activity.
