ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns an instant oral-release capsule containing an aqueous or aqueous alcoholic solution of nifedipine, containing a polyalkylene glycol and a polyoxyethylene ester component, the amount of the ester component in the solution being sufficient to prevent precipitation of nifedipine in the mouth of a patient after release of the solution from the capsule. Preferably, the ester component is an ethoxylated hydrogenated castor oil Cremophor RH40. The solution may further contain a second glycol component, especially glycerol.
