Diseases of the colon are treated by oral ingestion of a unit dosage form containing a plurality of porous microscopic beads, the pores containing an active agent or drug and plugged with a polysaccharide that is chemically degradable by colon-specific bacteria. The dosage form further contains a coating of an enteric material that remains intact until the dosage form reaches the colon.
