Abstract
Studies have shown that a bioefficient/HBS™ dosage form is more bioavail able than the conventional product. This is true with compounds which are absorbed from the upper portion of the small intestine or intended to act in the stomach contents. The increase in bioavailability is due to the design of this delivery system which is based on the HBS™ having a prolonged retention in the stomach, as shown by scintillation studies. Vitamins evaluated in these experiments include riboflavin, thiamine and a vitamin C plus E combination product.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
