Film Coating – Sustained release

Optimum release of the active ingredient over a longer period of time. Retarding film coatings enable targeted control of drug release. This offers numerous advantages, such as less frequent ingestion of medication by the patient. In addition, delayed-release film coatings can protect the gastric mucosa and reduce the stress on the body caused by peak concentrations. Controlled diffusion of the active ingredient through the film results in a longer duration of action.

By varying the polymer composition and film thickness, we can customize the release speed. This enables optimum adaptation to therapeutic requirements.
