What is micro-pellets technology?
Micropellets technology is a drug formulation technology that involves mixing a drug with excipients to make small spherical particles usually 0.1-2.5mm in diameter. These pellets have good flowability, are easy to fill capsules, and have less variation in drug loading. Depending on the mechanism of drug release, micropellets can be categorized into immediate-release micropellets, enteric-coated micropellets, and sustained-release micropellets.
Advantages of Micropellets Technology
Improvement of bioavailability: Small particle size makes it easier for the drug to be dissolved and absorbed, thus improving the efficacy of the drug.
Controllable release rate: By adjusting the formulation and process, a variety of release modes from immediate release to slow release and controlled release can be realized to meet the clinical needs of different drugs.
Reduced gastrointestinal irritation: Large surface area reduces gastrointestinal irritation and improves patient tolerance.
Improve drug stability: coating to protect the drug, prolong the efficacy.
Improve medication compliance: various dosage forms, easy to take, improve the patient’s initiative to use the drug.
Improve drug targeting: surface modification to realize precise treatment and reduce side effects.
Improve drug targeting: By modifying the surface of the micro-pill, the drug can be targeted to specific organs or tissues to improve the therapeutic effect.
