Abstract: The invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a plurality of controlled-release coated microparticles each comprising a floating core, on the surface of which is deposited a layer containing at least one active principle, said layer being covered with a controlled-release coating, characterized by the fact that said floating core is composed of cellulose acetate phthalate and has an apparent density of less than or equal to 0.6 g/mL and said coated microparticles have a density of less than or equal to 0.7 g/mL.

Abstract: The invention relates to oral medicaments having a modified release of proton pump inhibitors (PPI's) that are, in particular, useful in preventing and treating gastrointestinal disorders. The aim of the invention is to provide a novel oral medicament based on PPI's ideally having all or some of the following characteristics: a) quickly providing relief to the patient by increasing the gastric pH after oral administration of the medicament; b) accelerating the recovery of patients while maintaining this increase in the gastric pH for as long as possible after oral administration of the medicament and, in particular, during the night; c) improving the observance of the treatment and the comfort of the patient by taking the medicament once daily.
