This invention relates to a multi-configured, transmucosal pharmaceutical dosage form and, more particularly, to a pharmaceutical dosage form which has a single monolithic/heterogeneous layer or a plurality of such layers. The dosage form is suitable for the delivery of one or more pharmaceutical compositions via the buccal, sublingual, rectal, vaginal or transmucosal delivery route in a human or animal body. It provides for selected delivery profiles resulting from, but not limited to, a porosity-enabled composite matrix of one or more layers/components of the pharmaceutical composition/s. The invention also provides for a method of manufacturing said transmucosal pharmaceutical dosage form in a plurality of configurations.
