Abstract
Abstract A solid pharmaceutical preparation for administration in dosage unit form comprising a therapeutically effective cardiac glycoside, whereby each dosage unit is to comprise a plurality of bodies, each of said bodies having a pharmaceutically indifferent core, a first layer thereon containing the glycoside and a second layer containing a polymer insoluble in gastric juice and soluble in intestinal juice, a process for preparing such preparation and a method of treatment employing the same.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
105 words
A pharmaceutical preparation comprising a cardiac glycoside with a polymer coating, characterized in that said pharmaceutical preparation is in the form of a plurality of small bodies, each body comprising a fraction of a therapeutically effective dosage of the cardiac glycoside, whereby each body has a core made up of pharmaceutically indifferent material, and on said core a first layer made up of a composition comprising the cardiac glycoside, and thereon a second layer comprising an anionic carboxylic polymer being difficultly soluble or insoluble below a given pH value in the interval of pH 4-7.5 but being soluble at a pH above said given value.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
105 words
A pharmaceutical preparation comprising a cardiac glycoside with a polymer coating, characterized in that said pharmaceutical preparation is in the form of a plurality of small bodies, each body comprising a fraction of a therapeutically effective dosage of the cardiac glycoside, whereby each body has a core made up of pharmaceutically indifferent material, and on said core a first layer made up of a composition comprising the cardiac glycoside, and thereon a second layer comprising an anionic carboxylic polymer being difficultly soluble or insoluble below a given pH value in the interval of pH 4-7.5 but being soluble at a pH above said given value.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
32 words
A solid pharmaceutical preparation according to claim 1, characterized in that each of the first layer and the second layer is a layer applied by spraying a solution of the components thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
35 words
A pharmaceutical preparation in accordance with claim 1 or 2 characterized in that said first layer further comprises a water soluble polymer having the ability to increase the solubility or releasability of the cardiac glycoside.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
117 words
A process for preparing a pharmaceutical preparation comprising a cardiac glycoside with a polymer coating, characterized in that said pharmaceutical preparation is given the form of a plurality of small bodies, each body comprising a fraction of a therapeutically effective dosage of the cardiac glycoside, by providing a large number of cores made up of pharmaceutically indifferent material, with a first layer made up of a composition comprising the cardiac glycoside, whereupon the bodies comprising said core and first layer are provided with a second layer comprising an anionic carboxylic polymer being difficultly soluble or insoluble below a given pH value in the interval of pH 4-7.5 but being soluble at a pH above said given value.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
117 words
A process for preparing a pharmaceutical preparation comprising a cardiac glycoside with a polymer coating, characterized in that said pharmaceutical preparation is given the form of a plurality of small bodies, each body comprising a fraction of a therapeutically effective dosage of the cardiac glycoside, by providing a large number of cores made up of pharmaceutically indifferent material, with a first layer made up of a composition comprising the cardiac glycoside, whereupon the bodies comprising said core and first layer are provided with a second layer comprising an anionic carboxylic polymer being difficultly soluble or insoluble below a given pH value in the interval of pH 4-7.5 but being soluble at a pH above said given value.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
29 words
A process according to claim 4, characterized in that each of the first and the second layer is applied by adding a solution of the components of the layer.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
15 words
A process according to claim 5, characterized in that each solution is applied by spraying.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
24 words
A process according to claim 5 or 6, characterized in that the first and the second layer are applied in a fluid bed apparatus.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
24 words
A method of treatment of cardiac disorders comprising administrating to a mammal including man a therepeutically effective dose of the preparation of claim 1.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
136 words
A pharmaceutical preparation comprising a cardiac glycoside with a polymer coating, characterized in that said pharmaceutical preparation is in the form of a plurality of small bodies, each body comprising a fraction of a therapuetically effective dosage of the cardiac glycoside, whereby each body has a core made up of pharmaceutically indifferent material in a sieve fraction between 0.1 and 3.0 mm, and on said core a first layer made up of a composition comprising the cardiac glycoside, and thereon a second layer comprising an anionic carboxylic polymer being difficultly soluble or insoluble below a given pH value in the interval of pH 4-7.5 but being soluble at a pH above said given value, the weight of the second layer being 1.10 -2 to 30.10 -2 times the weight of the core plus the first layer.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
136 words
