Disclosed is a formulation for coating a medical device which comprises an anti-scarring agent and a biocompatible polymer for regulating the release of the anti-scarring agent, wherein the mass ratio of the biocompatible polymer to the anti-scaring agent is from 100:15 to 100:0 in which 0 is not included. The present formulation can be advantageously used for coating medical devices for a sustained release of the agents from the device, thus effectively minimizing or preventing the formation of scar tissues resulted from the use of implantable and non-implantable medical devices. |
