Enteric softgel capsules have gelatin-based shell coating with semi-solid and liquid medication inside. They are resistant to digestive juices and consequently pass through the stomach unaffected and dissolve in the intestinal tract. They provide several advantages, such as bioavailability, easy usability, and improved adequacy levels. Besides this, they minimize poor aftertaste, optimize dosage efficiency, help treat indigestion, and prevent gastric irritation and reflux. Presently, the increasing awareness among individuals about the benefits of consuming preventive medicines is catalyzing the demand for enteric softgel capsules worldwide.
