The present invention is directed to a pharmaceutically acceptable taste masking liquid excipient base for administration of a relatively large amount of unpleasant tasting medicines. More particularly, the enhanced sweetness and taste masking effect are produced by the addition of sucralose to the excipient base with maintenance of a pH from about 2 to about 5. The invention is further directed to medicinal compositions comprising such a liquid excipient base and unpleasant tasting medicines. Still further, the invention is directed to a method for taste masking unpleasant tasting medicines through their incorporation into the claimed liquid excipient bases. |
