Abstract: The invention relates to stable ginger extract preparations, characterized by having a content of a native ginger extract and of at least one stabilizing auxiliary agent selected from the group of proton-capturing substances, whereby the chemically stabilizing auxiliary agent preferably belongs to the family of polyvinylpyrrolidones and releases the included pungent agents in solution. Stable ginger extract preparations having large amounts of pharmaceutically relevant pungent agents or essential oils are additionally obtained by carefully carrying out method steps, which are relevant to the production, at a temperature of no greater than 45° C. The inventive preparations remain analytically stable over a long period of time of up to 18 months and longer. The invention also relates to solid galenic dosage forms such as capsules, tablets and dragees all of which containing the stable ginger extract preparations.
