Fluconazole slow release capsules

The object of the invention is to provide fluconazole containing capsules with improved active ingredient release. The in vitro dissolution as well as in vivo absorption of the fluconazole capsules according to the invention is faster and more consistent than those of commercial compositions containing fluconazole. The invention is based on the fact that granulation of fluconazole particles with an agent capable to provide hydrophilic surface, e.g. lactose, to said particles results in fast an consistent release of the active ingredient. In this way, capsules according to the invention are suitable to provide enhanced absorption of said active ingredient.
