Bimodal drug release achieved with multi-layer matrix tablets: transport mechanisms and device design.

TLDR
The aim of this study was to develop new multi-layer matrix tablets to achieve bimodal drug release profiles (fast release/slow release/fast release) and Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS) was chosen as a matrix former, because it is water-insoluble at low, and water-soluble at high pH values.
