Patent abstract
A method for producing a coated chewing gum product with accelerated absorption of medicaments through oral mucosa, as well as the chewing gum product so produced, is obtained by using a xylitol or sorbitol coating, or by adding a water-soluble alkaline material, such as a bicarbonate salt, to the chewing gum center, a coating on the center, or both. Coatings made with sorbitol or xylitol or gum centers that include sodium bicarbonate are particularly preferred.
