The present invention provides for an improvement in the emul- sion copolymerization process for the preparation of fine-beaded colestipol hydrochloride (FBCH) wherein the improvement comprises: 1) utilizing a weight ratio of water to polyethylenepolyamine in the process of 1.8 to 3.6 grams per gram, and 2) utilizing a weight ratio of surface active agent or surfactant to polyethylenepolyamine in the process of 1.0 to 3.0 grams per kilogram; The colestipol hydrochloride product thus produced is a novel fine- beaded form of a known pharmaceutical composition, yielding pharmaceutically elegant dosage forms exhibiting increased potency, including non-gritty oral powders and oral tablets. Conventional colestipol hydrochloride was heretofore available in large spherical granules which produced less elegant (gritty) oral suspensions.
