Abstract

A sustained release type pharmaceutical preparation adapted to p provide a predetermined total dosage of medicament, said medicament comprising a major portion of a compound selected from theophylline, its salts or derivatives, a minor proportion of a non-addictive antitussive agent and, if desired, an analgesic or antipyretic agent said dosage to be released continuously following ingestion, comprises a plurality of medicament-bearing pellets, at least one pellet having a retardant coating thereon comprising a mixture of at least 95% by weight of the coating of a glyceride and minor amounts of at least one fatty alcohol and of beeswax. The theophylline compound is theophylline sodium acetate, theophylline sodium salicylate, theophylline diethanolamine, theophylline methyl glucamine, theophylline sodium glycinate, theophylline calcium salicylate, theophylline ethylene diamine, 7-hydroxyethyltheophylline and theophylline cholinate. The anti-tussive agent may be thyme extract, dextromethorpham hydrobromide, noscapine or papaverine. Optional ingredients are analgesics or antipyretics, e.g. aspirin or N-acetyl-p-aminophenol. The preparation is in the form of a tablet, pellet or a capsule containing pellets. The pellets may have different thicknesses of said retardant coating so that individual pellets have differing periods of retardation, e.g. releasing the medicament in one, two and three hours. The preparation may contain a mixture of (a) a pellet containing a core covered by a medicament-bearing layer and having a further layer thereon of a coating soluble in gastric fluids and (b) pellets containing a medicament bearing layer on an inner core with a final layer of the said retardant coating, the final coating on different pellets having different thicknesses. Specification 935,602 is referred to.
