ABSTRACT:
Programmed release tablets, to be administered by oral route, containing from 500 to 1,200 mg of naproxen, made by mixtures of an immediate release granulate dry compacted containing from 5% to 28% of naproxen, of a controlled release granulate dry compacted containing from 72% to 95% of naproxen and of a disintegrating agent. A portion of naproxen is released in a short time, so that the drug can quickly develop its therapeutic action reaching the necessary hematic levels, while the remaining portion is released in a longer interval of time, so as to allow the therapeutic coverage until the subsequent administration. The therapeutic coverage is effective for a period of 24 hours; thus the tablets object of the present invention are suitable for a once a day administration.
