A NEW COMPOSITION CONTAINING SELEGILINE

摘要

A new stable solid composition suitable for oral administration comprising acceptable acid addition salt of selegiline is achieved by reducing the destabilizing effect of the conventional lubricant present in such compositions, magnesium stearate, either by replacing all or a substantial part of the magnesium stearate by other lubricants such as fatty acid esters and vegetable oils and/or by adding a pharmaceutically acceptable acid to the selegiline-containing tablets.
