1. An osmotic dosage form for the administration of isradipine to a biological environment of use, wherein the dosage form comprises:
- (A) a first composition comprising a dosage amount of isradipine, and a polyethylene oxide comprising a molecular weight of about 200,000;
(B) a second composition comprising a polyethylene oxide comprising a molecular weight of about 5,000,000 to 7,800,000;
(C) a wall comprising at least in part a composition permeable to the passage of an exterior fluid present in the environment of use, which wall surrounds the first and second compositions; and
,(D) at least one passageway in the wall connecting the exterior of the dosage form with the interior of the dosage form for delivering isradipine to the environment of use.
