Abstract

A pharmaceutical or nutraceutical tablet for oral administration comprising at least two fatty acids or derivatives thereof and cyclodextrin. Surprisingly, we have now found that fatty acids or derivatives thereof, especially fatty acid esters, preferably in the form of complexes with cyclodextrins prepared as stable solid materials, can easily be transformed into tablets with very high concentration of the fatty acid compound. The present inventors have realised that ideal dosage forms for these compounds are tablets and these are readily swallowed and are cheap to manufacture. In particular, the inventors have found that tablets containing complexes of fatty acids or derivatives thereof with cyclodextrin can be prepared by direct compression and moreover they can be prepared having a very high concentration of the desired active agent.
