MEDICATED CHEWING GUM WITH A PLEASANT TASTE CONTAINING AN INCLUSION COMPLEX

摘要

A process for the preparation of medicated chewing gum that has a pleasant taste independent from the active agents incorporated in the gum. The process involves the formation of a cyclodextrin inclusion complex containing the active agent(s) which is dried and mixed with a granulated gum base without added water or other solvents. The process is carried out under controlled temperature and humidity and the blended components are cold-pressed to produce a final gum product.
