  • Hydrogel-driven layered drug dosage form
    Patent number: 6899896
    Abstract: A controlled release dosage form for sertraline has a core comprising a sertraline-containing composition and a water-swellable composition wherein the water-swellable composition is in a separate region within the core. A coating around the core is water-permeable, water-insoluble, and has at least one delivery port therethrough.
