A controlled release dosage form comprising: (i) a tablet core comprising a pharmaceutically active ingredient and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable matrix forming polymers, (ii) a substantially insoluble casing extended over the tablet core covering between 25 to 99% of the surface area of the tablet core, like for example covering only the major surfaces like in FIG. 1 or on major surface and the sidewells like in FIG. 2, the casing resulting from electrostatic deposition of a powder comprising fusible particles onto the tablet core and fusing the particles to form a thin film such that the said electrostatic coated tablet releases the active ingredient with a release profile of active ingredient for 0 to at least 50% by weight release of active ingredient defined by the equations y=k*t<SUP>n </SUP>in which y is the fraction of active ingredient released, k is the kinetic constant, t is time, n is the release exponent and n is the range 0.70 to 1.0 i.e. an approximately zero order release profile. |
