Abstract
A hollow particulate for gastric medicines and other durable medicines suspendable in the gastric juice and remainable in the stomach for a long period of time is provided which has been prepared by dissolving ethylcellulose in a lower chlorinated hydrocarbon, or a mixed solution of the lower chlorinated hydrocarbon and a lower chlorofluorinated hydrocarbon and/or water, so that the concentration of ethylcellulose is 0.5 - 4% by weight on the basis of the total weight of the resulting solution, and then spray-drying the solution at an inlet temperature of higher than 50.degree.
