The active ingredient MATRIX is preferably essentially uniformly dispersed, in particular homogeneously dispersed or dissolved, in the excipient TECHNICAL FIELD matrix. A preparation preferably comprises microspheres. The present invention relates to the field of pharmaceu The preparations of the invention are distinguished in tical technology and describes a novel advantageous prepa particular by high stability, a release of active ingredient ration for an active ingredient. The novel preparation is which can be controlled by the particle size and composition Suitable for the production of a large number of pharmaceu 10 of the matrix, good flow characteristics, good compressibil tical dosage forms. ity and by a uniform delivery of active ingredient. In the case of acid-labile active ingredients it is moreover possible to BACKGROUND ART achieve, through choice of the matrix excipients, an acid resistance so that it is possible in the case of oral forms to In order to achieve particular properties of a dosage form, 15 dispense with an acid-resistant coating (enteric coating). In Such as, for example, taste masking in the case of active the case of active ingredients which have an unpleasant taste ingredients with an unpleasant taste, resistance to gastric or, for example, show a local effect in the mouth juice in the case of acid-labile active ingredients or con after administration, it has been observed that an unpleasant trolled release of an active ingredient, normally active taste of the active ingredient can be masked, and anesthetic ingredient pellets are provided with an appropriate func effects in the mouth can be avoided, by preparations of the tional coating. If such coated pellets are then further pro invention. It is particularly worthy of mention that the cessed to dosage forms, for example shaped to tablets by preparations of the invention can be further processed to a compression with excipients, there is a risk that the coating large number of pharmaceutical dosage forms without is damaged and thus the functionality is at least partly lost thereby losing a given functionality (such as taste masking, aga1n. 25 resistance to gastric juice, slowing of release). Thus, for DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION example, on compression of the active ingredient units of the invention no or negligible loss of functionality is observed It is an object of the present invention to provide a even if deformation of the active ingredient units occurs. In preparation for active ingredients which is able to retain a 30 contrast to this, with conventional pellets, which normally desired functionality and can be further processed to a large have a functional coating (such as taste masking, resistance number of pharmaceutical process forms with negligible to gastric juice, slowing of release), a certain degree of impairment of a given functionality. damage to the coating and thus to the functionality is It has now been found, Surprisingly, that this object is observed on further processing to dosage forms, for example achieved by a preparation in which an active ingredient is 35 on compression to tablets. This may also lead in Some cases essentially uniformly dispersed in an excipient matrix com to active ingredient being released in an unwanted way. posed of one or more excipients selected from the group of The particle size of the individual units is advantageously fatty alcohol, triglyceride, partial glyceride and fatty acid less than or equal to 2 mm, preferably 50–800 um, particu ester. larly preferably 50–700 um and very particularly preferably The invention therefore relates to a preparation in which 40 50–600 um.
