Abstract
A control release and abuse-resistant opiate drug delivery oral wafer or edible oral film dosage to treat pain and substance abuse is provided. The drug delivery oral wafer or edible oral film dosage includes a controlled release layer containing enteric-release beads dispersed in a polymer matrix. The enteric-release beads are formed from a therapeutic amount of an opioid agonist and/or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a sub-therapeutic amount of opioid antagonist and/or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof coated or encapsulated in an enteric-release polymer. The controlled release polymer matrix dissolves or disintegrates following administration or consumption of the oral wafer or edible oral film, releasing the enteric-release beads to be swallowed, with subsequent absorption of the active ingredients within the patient's intestines.
