Extended Release Granule for Suspension Dosage Form
Definition 1
A granule intended for administration as a suspension and designed to release active and/or inert ingredient(s) at a controlled, prolonged rate so as to reduce dosing frequency. (NCI Thesaurus)
Definition 2
A small medicinal particle or grain made available in its more stable dry form, to be reconstituted with solvent just before dispensing to form a suspension; the extended release system achieves slow release of the drug over an extended period of time and maintains constant drug levels in the blood or target tissue. (NCI Thesaurus/CDISC)
