Abstract
An oral dosage form of an antidiabetic pharmaceutical composition comprises a core portion, an outer portion, and a controlled membrane film sandwiched therebetween. The core and outer portions respectively comprise a first antidiabetic agent and a second antidiabetic agent, such as metformin HCl and sitagliptin phosphate, each at a therapeutically effective amount. The controlled membrane film encapsulates the core portion and is provided with at least one passageway for allowing the first antidiabetic agent to release out when the oral dosage form is in an aqueous environment, such as in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of a subject. The oral dosage form is configured, upon a single-dose oral administration, to provide a maximum plasma concentration of the first antidiabetic agent in the subject from approximately 7.5 to 15 hours after administration. A method for manufacturing the oral dosage form of the antidiabetic pharmaceutical composition is also provided.
