Abstract

A liquid pharmaceutical composition is contemplated that comprises a pharmaceutically effective amount of a bitter tasting drug dissolved or dispersed in an aqueous medium that is free of ethanol. That aqueous medium consists essentially of water, about 5 to about 30 weight percent polyvinylpyrrolidone, about 45 to about 55 weight percent of a C3 -C6 polyol, about 0.01 to about 0.5 weight percent ammonium glycyrrhizinate and one or more flavorants. The liquid composition is transparent and has a pleasant taste.
