Enteric film and preparation thereof.

摘要

An enteric film is produced by spraying on a material a mixed solution of (a) hydroxypropylmethylcellulose phthalate exhibiting a viscosity of about 136 to 204 centistokes as 10 % methanol/dichloromethane (1 : 1 by weight) solution at 20 DEG C, (b) polyethylene glycol presenting solid state at ambient temperature and (c) shellac, wherein respective ratios of (b) and (c) to (a) are 0.1 to 20 weight percent and 5 to 40 weight percent; and then drying the solution. The enteric film excels in film strength and acid resistance, and can be employed in pharmaceutical preparations.
