ABSTRACT:
Microspheres prepared by emulsifying an aqueous phase containing a drug and an oil phase containing a biodegradable polymer to form a W/O emulsion, and then mixing and agitating this emulsion with another aqueous phase constituting a continuous phase to form a W/O/W emulsion. These microspheres can release a major portion of the drug after a predetermined period of time has elapsed after their administration to the patient, and are especially suitable for intracerebral implantation.
