COMPOSITION FOR PROLONGING THE RESIDENCE TIME OF DRUGS IN THE GUT AND USE THEREOF

摘要

The present invention provides methods and compositions for slowing the transit time of foodstuffs, pharmaceutical compounds, nutritional supplements, and vitamins through the gastrointestinal tract using cyclic Gulp (cGMP) alone and cGMP in combination with succinate. The method and corresponding compositions prolong residence time of such compounds, and thereby increase absorption through the small intestine, increase bioavailability, and improve feed conversion ratios.
