摘要 |
The present invention provides a multi-release oral drug delivery system that initiates drug release following an initial drug-free release interval, after administration to a subject, and a second drug-free release period before release of another dose of drug. The system has (1) inner compartments enclosed within a semipermeable membrane, and (2) a drug coating on the exterior of the semipermeable membrane surrounded by a microporous membrane, which microporous membrane is permeable to fluid and drug. The drug coating is released after the initial drug-free release interval. An inner compartment drug is released after a second drug-free release interval provided by a drug-free inner compartment.
