A pharmaceutical composition is prepared in the form of microparticles or of an implant comprising a biodegradable polymer selected from poly-1,4-butylene succinate, poly-2,3-butylene succinate, poly-1,4-buty-lene fumarate and poly-2,3-butylene succinate, incorporating as the active substance the pamoate, tannate, stearate or palmitate of a natural or of a synthetic peptide comprising 3 to 45 amino acids, such as LH-RH, somatostatin, GH-RH or calcitonin, or one of their synthetic analogues or homologues. The preparation comprises dry blending the ingredients in the form of powders, pre-compressing and preheating the mixture and then extruding the precompressed and pre-heated mixture. The product resulting from the extrusion step can then be comminuted and finally sieved. |
