See full text

A pharmaceutical composition intended for oral use contains the effective ingredient(s), capsaicin, and other typical fillers and excipients. The composition is preferably in the form of a solid oral dosage form. Transdermally administered compositions are also within the purview of the invention. Aside from the effective pharmaceutical ingredient(s) the composition includes an amount of capsaicin which serves as a deterrent to the intranasal, intravenous, or oral abuse of the composition. Such a composition deters abusers from crushing prescription pharmaceutical tablets for abusive snorting, injection, or ingestion.
