Sustained release profiles and targeted delivery of pharmaceutical products

A matrix tablet is coated with functional polymers, followed by a blend of hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymers. Layered erosion and diffusion of the drug matrix tablet result in a controllable release. An effective solution for targeted drug delivery through customized and sustained release technology. Assists development of high-dosage and sustained release products for once-daily administration.

Customized release profiles, including zero-order release

This technology incorporates a blend of hydrophilic polymers that control drug release via diffusion through, and erosion of, a matrix tablet. Some layers contain drug substance; others are rate controlling polymers.

Key Benefits

  • Matrix tablet utilizes a combination of water soluble particles and active drug
  • Suitable for high drug loading
  • Supports sustained release, once a day dosing
