The present invention relates to a solid oral pharmaceutical dosage form with a novel and well defined order of specific coatings allowing for the very defined and controlled release of at least one pharmaceutical active ingredient (API) and a broad range of potential uses. Particularly, the dosage form according to the invention comprises an immediate release active core, a first delayed-release layer comprising an enteric coating, a second sustained release layer comprising a retard polymer, and a third immediate release layer comprising an active pharmaceutical ingredient. The solid oral pharmaceutical dosage form as such is characterized in having a bi-modal release profile of the at least one API with a much less variable second delayed release than known prior art pharmaceutical compositions, allowing for the application of different APIs or combinations thereof in for a variety of indications.
