Capsugel Dosage Form Solutions' soft gelatin capsules offer a number of formulation and commercial benefits for both pharmaceutical and dietary supplement products.
The one-piece capsule features an easy-to-swallow shell consisting of plasticizers (glycerin, sorbitol, PEG) that meet all cGMP guidelines, FDA and MEA purity standards and feature a Certified QA system for traceability of raw materials. The tamper-resistant shell masks taste and smell in a broad range of unique shapes and colors.
A liquid matrix is utilized to improve the solubility of poorly water soluble compounds, address food effect and improve API stability. The tamper-resistant shell is available in a wide range of shapes and colors to meet branding, line extension and life cycle management objectives.
