Dosage forms comprising preparations of slightly water-soluble active substances in a polymer matrix of polyether copolymers, the polyether copolymers being obtained by free radical polymerization of a mixture of from 30 to 80% by weight of N-vinyllactam, from 10 to 50% by weight of vinyl acetate and from 10 to 50% by weight of a polyether, and of at least one slightly water-soluble polymer in which the slightly water-soluble active substance is present in amorphous form in the polymer matrix.

Solid pharmaceutical preparations containing copolymers based on polyethers combined with poorly water-soluble polymers

The invention relates to dosage forms which contain preparations of poorly water-soluble substances in a polymer matrix of polyether copolymers, said polyether copolymers being obtained by the radically initiated polymerization of a mixture from 30 to 80% by weight of N-vinyl lactam, 10 to 50% by weight of vinyl acetate and 10 to 50% by weight of a polyether, and at least one poorly water-soluble polymer, the poorly water-soluble substance being present in the polymer matrix as an amorphous substance.

Formulations of sparingly water-soluble active ingredients, consisting of carrier particles provided with active ingredient-containing coatings, the sparingly soluble active ingredients being embedded in coatings composed of amphiphilic copolymers.

Pellets coated with coatings containing active substances

Process for the production of nanoporous foamed active substance-containing preparations, wherein the active substance is present embedded in a pharmaceutically acceptable polymer, wherein, in stage a) loading of a polymeric molding composition or a polymer melt with a propellant is effected at a pressure and at a temperature at which the propellant is in the supercritical state, in stage b) heating of the laden polymer molding compound or melt is carried out under pressure at a temperature which lies in the range from &#x2212;40 to +60&#xb0; C., preferably &#x2212;20 to +55&#xb0; C., and especially preferably 0 to +50&#xb0; C. around the glass transition temperature of the unladen (prior to loading) polymeric molding compound and in stage c) a depressurization of the polymeric molding compound or melt laden in stage a) and heated under pressure in stage b) is effected out with a depressurization rate in the range from 15,000 to 200,000 MPa/sec.
