A method of making a gummy composition, comprising
- providing a gelatin blend, comprising gelatin and a swelling agent,
- providing a bonding blend, comprising a combination of at least two of a monosaccharide, a disaccharide and a tri-saccharide,
- providing an active blend, comprising an active agent and a liquid solvent, wherein the active agent comprises an pharmaceutical active ingredient (API), and wherein the liquid solvent comprises a diprotic solvent, tri-protic solvent, or a combination thereof,
- combining the active blend, the bonding blend and a gelatin blend to provide a molding blend wherein the bonding blend has a higher Brix number than the molding blend, and
- forming the molding blend into a gummy composition.
(canceled)
The method of claim 66, wherein the antihistamine comprises cetirizine, diphenhydramine, loratadine, chlorpheniramine, brompheniramine, alimemazine, cyprohetadine, doxylamine, hydroxyzine, promethazine, or a combination thereof.
A gummy composition, comprising a gelling blend, a bonding blend and an active blend, wherein the gelling blend comprise gelatin, pectin, or a combination thereof, wherein the bonding blend comprises a low GI monosaccharide and a low GI disaccharide, and wherein active blend comprises an pharmaceutical active ingredient (API).
