Abstract

A pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one pharmaceutically active agent that is pH dependent, at least one non-pH dependent sustained release agent, and at least one pH dependent agent that increases the dissolution rate of the at least one pharmaceutically active agent at a pH in excess of 5.5. Such compositions have minimized pH-dependent dissolution profiles or pH-independent dissolution profiles.
