Controlled release
Fertin Pharma is an expert in the development of chewing gum that is designed to give instant or sustained release of active substances – or even both within the same piece of chewing gum.
We have the know-how and patented technology to profile the release of both lipophilic and hydrophilic substances, and we are able to adjust the release time and rate to match customer requirements
.
The company make use of several different release systems (solubilisers, matrices, encapsulation techniques, etc.) and combinations of systems, to create the optimal release profile for the relevant active substance. This release profile may be very fast or more prolonged (up to 20 minutes), depending on the product and target patient group. Additional fine-tuning of the profile can be done by placing the active substance in the coating as well as the core.
