New Organic Coating System to Modulate Drug Release
A Colorcon Study, Effect of Coating Weight Gain and Pore-Former Level on Drug Release with a Fully Formulated Ethylcellulose Barrier Membrane Coating System, shows how Opadry® EC can achieve a range of release profiles with multiparticulates containing a freely soluble or slightly soluble model drugs. As a ready-to-use system, it offers fast formulation screening during development, the flexibility to tailor release profiles for drugs with different aqueous solubility with consistent coating performance, and helps reduce potential errors during raw material handling and manufacture.
