Pharmaceutical Manufacturing and Packing Sourcer
|
Well known as a sugar replacer in the food industry, isomalt is also highly suitable for a wide range of pharmaceutical applications.
Pharmaceutical products must meet increasingly exacting requirements; it is not enough for a medication to have the desired effect. Products also require optimal quality in taste, texture, appearance, shelf life and packaging. This applies all the more to the highly competitive market of OTC products and dietary supplements.
The excipient also plays a key role in pharmaceutical products. It must provide the perfect means of delivery for the actual active ingredient while giving the product ideal characteristics. The main requirements are compatibility, stability in terms of physiological and chemical properties (non-ageing), neutrality in taste and appearance, and the ability to enable precise dosage.
