Abstract

See full text

There is provided a method for preparing an orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) composition comprising microparticles of one or more taste-masked active pharmaceutical ingredient(s), rapidly-dispersing microgranules, and other optional, pharmaceutically acceptable excipients wherein the ODT disintegrates on contact with saliva in the buccal cavity in about 60 seconds forming a smooth, easy-to-swallow suspension. Furthermore, the microparticles (crystals, granules, beads or pellets containing the active) applied with a taste-masking membrane comprising a combination of water-insoluble and gastrosoluble polymers release not less than about 60% of the dose is in the stomach in about 30 minutes, thus maximizing the probability of achieving bioequivalence to the reference IR product having rapid onset of action (short Tmax). A process for preparing such compositions for oral administration using conventional fluid-bed equipment and rotary tablet press is also disclosed.
