Oral film dosage forms that provide improved solubilization and stabilization of an active ingredient in particle form include at least one primary crystallization inhibitor in an amount that inhibits growth and/or agglomeration of the active ingredient, a polyoxyethylated fatty acid glycerides in an amount that further enhances inhibition of crystallization, growth and agglomeration of the particles of the pharmaceutically active ingredient; and at least one plasticizer present in an amount that is effective to increase flexibility and elasticity of the film dosage form.

Solid oral film dosage forms and methods for making same

Improved pharmaceutical solid oral film dosage forms for the buccal and/or sublingual delivery of pharmaceutical, nutraceutical or cosmetic ingredients are endowed with instant hydration potential and complete dissolution potentially enabling the active ingredient to become immediately available for enhanced buccal and/or sublingual absorption and/or reduced absorption through the gastrointestinal route. The improved delivery systems for solubilizing and stabilizing pharmaceutically active ingredients exhibit enhanced stability by the use of a combination of crystallization inhibitors, which together can maintain the active ingredient in a desired plurality of particles in an effective size range within a polymeric film matrix.
