Controlled Release

Controlled release film coatings have become an integral part of the pharmaceutical industry. They ensure that drug release profiles are accurately tailored, thereby optimizing therapeutic efficacy while minimizing potential side effects. For sustained release and taste-masking applications, Corelease EC™ Ethylcellulose Organic Coating System provides a fully formulated proven solution that is easy to use and reliable.

Understanding Corelease EC

Corelease EC is a controlled release film coating product. Specifically designed for organic solvent coating of multiparticulates and tablets, it plays a crucial role in sustained release and taste-masking functions. Key applications of this fully formulated product include:

  • Formulated Barrier Membrane Coating: Corelease EC serves as a protective barrier that modulates the release of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
  • Controlled Release Performance: The release performance of Corelease EC can be fine-tuned through the manipulation of polymer and pore-former levels, giving flexibility in formulation design.
  • Modifiable Film Porosity: Corelease EC allows for the adjustment of film porosity, which in turn provides controlled release of low, medium, and high solubility drugs.

 

Why Choose Corelease EC?

Choosing Corelease EC as your coating system comes with many benefits:

  • Reduced Complexity and Increased Reliability: Corelease EC's fully formulated system eliminates the need for additional raw material components, streamlining the formulation and manufacturing process, reducing operator errors.
