QUICKLY DISINTEGRATING FOAM WAFER WITH HIGH MASS PER UNIT AREA.

摘要

The invention relates to flat dosage forms that disintegrate or dissolve in an aqueous environment for releasing at least one active ingredient in a body orifice or body cavity, and which are formed from a polymer matrix in the form of a solidified foam having cavities, and at least one pharmaceutical active ingredient, and which have a high mass per unit area in the region of 50 to 350 g/m². Despite their high mass per unit area and the resulting high active ingredient loading during administration, these dosage forms are characterised by a substantially improved mouthfeel in comparison to conventional film dosage forms. The invention also relates to methods for producing a dosage form of this type.
