Abstract
A method of treating a gastrointestinal disorder includes administering to a patient an effective amount of a multiparticulate dosage form including a plurality of individual spheroidal enteric coated cores having a diameter of 0.1 mm to 3 mm. The individual spheroidal enteric coated cores have (a) a core including menthol, (b) a proteinaceous subcoating over the core, and (c) an enteric coating over the proteinaceous subcoating. The multiparticulate dosage form is configured to release most of the menthol in the area of the GI tract where the inflammation is occurring.
