A masking agent for pharmaceutical tastes comprises a mixture of a sapid agent and an enhancer, in the form of an intimate mixture. The sapid agent/enhancer distribution is substantially homogeneous and non-statistical. The proportion of sapid agent relative to the enhancer is substantially constant and equal in all powder particles. The masking agent can have a grain size comprised between 10 and 100 μum, with a Gaussian distribution. The proportion of sapid agent/enhancer is comprised between 97/3 and 90/10, expressed in parts by weight. The sapid agent comprises a sweetener selected from the group comprising sodium saccharinates, calcium saccharinates, saccharine, aspartyl-phenylalanine, acesulfam, cyclamates, stevioside, and mixtures thereof; and the enhancer is selected from the group comprising thaumatin, neohesperidin dihydrochalcone (NHDC), glycyrrhizin, and mixtures thereof. A method of producing a masking agent is also disclosed.
A masking agent for pharmaceutical tastes, comprising a mixture of a sapid agent and an enhancer, in the form of an intimate mixture wherein the sapid agent/enhancer distribution is substantially homogeneous, non-statistical, and wherein the proportion of sapid agent relative to the enhancer is substantially constant and equal in all powder particles.
A medicament in powder form, comprising in the form of an intimate mixture wherein the sapid agent/enhancer distribution is substantially homogeneous, non-statistical, and wherein the proportion of sapid agent relative to the enhancer is substantially constant and equal in all powder particles.
A masking agent for pharmaceutical tastes, comprising a mixture of a sapid agent and a potentiator, in the form of an intimate mixture whereof the sapid agent/potentiator distribution is substantially homogenous, non-statistical, and wherein the proportion of sapid agent relative to the potentiator is substantially constant and equal in all powder particles, said masking agent having a grain size comprised between 10 and 100 μm with a Guassian distribution.
