controlled-release dosage form

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.15163
Medication, which due to its special technological construction provides for drug release having predefined kinetics (zero order, \(t^{1/2}\), first order, etc.) at a sufficient rate to maintain the desired therapeutic level over an extended period of time.
Note: Also used to denote sustained-release products with zero-order release kinetics.
