<p>A simple and compact buccal dosage unit is provided for administering a pharmacologically active agent to a mammalian individual. The buccal dosage unit comprises the active agent to be administered, a polymeric carrier that bioerodes and provides for delivery of the androgenic agent over a predetermined time period, and, preferably, a lubricant such as magnesium stearate. The dosage units are ideal for administering drugs that have low oral bioavailability but are nevertheless potent and can thus be administered in small quantities, i.e., at low dosages, using the compact systems. Methods for administering active agents using the dosage units are provided as well.</p> |
