ABSTRACT:
Novel pharmaceutical powder and tablet compositions comprise ibuprofen or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a pharmaceutically acceptable effervescent couple that produces carbon dioxide in the presence of water, a pharmaceutically acceptable surfactant and a pharmaceutically acceptable water-insoluble hydrophilic polymer. Preferred hydrophilic polymers are microcrystalline cellulose and croscarmellose sodium.
Especially preferred are such compositions which have a saccharide dispersed therein. The incorporation of the saccharide, for example sucrose, lactose, dextrose or sorbitol, enhances the stability of the compositions.
