DrugCoat® offers a flexible and modern polymer coating platform based on methacrylic copolymers, designed to support multiple drug delivery strategies, enteric protection, taste masking, and sustained release. These coatings help shield both the drug and stomach lining from harsh acidity, improve moisture and taste stability, and enable controlled or targeted release, reducing dosing frequency and side effects while enhancing patient compliance.
DRUGCOAT is a versatile coating system by Vikram thermo pharma that improves stability, taste masking, and release control in drug formulations. It’s built on advanced polymethyl acrylate technology for reliable performance.
Yes, DRUGCOAT supports colon-specific delivery by using pH-sensitive polymethyl acrylate coatings that dissolve only in targeted intestinal environments. Thermo Pharma’s research ensures precise release control.
Methacrylic copolymers like polymethyl acrylate offer pH-dependent solubility, sustained release, and improved drug stability. Thermo Pharma leverages these polymers for effective therapeutic outcomes.
DRUGCOAT is engineered for compatibility with both aqueous and non-aqueous systems, making it ideal for diverse applications. Polymethyl acrylate plays a key role in this flexibility.
All DRUGCOAT products follow global regulatory norms including USP, EP, and JP standards. Thermo Pharma ensures quality by using high-grade polymethyl acrylate-based polymers in its formulations.
Our company revolves around giving maximum to the two pillars that lay the foundation for our business: People and Product. Through constant R&D and innovation, the company plans to build a better future without compromising the quality and safety to reach a higher level of excellence in healthcare facilities.
