Enteric-Coated Gelatin Capsules — Manufacturer

Enteric-Coated Gelatin Capsules — Manufacturer

Introduction: Delivering Active Ingredients Beyond the Stomach

In the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries, many active ingredients are unstable in stomach acid or cause gastric irritation when released too early. For these formulations, standard gelatin capsules are not enough.

Enteric-coated gelatin capsules are specially designed to withstand acidic conditions in the stomach and dissolve only in the higher pH environment of the intestines, ensuring targeted release and improved therapeutic outcomes.

At Medico Merim, we manufacture high-quality enteric-coated hard gelatin capsules in our GMP-certified facilities in Türkiye. Combining advanced coating technology with pharmaceutical-grade capsule production, we help brands deliver safe, effective, and precisely targeted products.

Description

Why Enteric-Coated Capsules Are Essential

Protection from Gastric Acid

Enteric coating prevents the capsule from dissolving in the stomach, protecting acid-sensitive ingredients like probiotics, enzymes, and certain peptides from degradation.

Targeted Intestinal Delivery

These capsules pass intact through the stomach and release their contents in the intestines, where absorption is optimal — enhancing bioavailability and therapeutic effect.

Reduced Gastric Irritation

By preventing premature release in the stomach, enteric-coated capsules reduce irritation of the gastric lining, improving patient comfort and compliance.
