Gastroresistance and GI Targeting

If you need to protect your active from the gastric fluid and would like to improve drug effectiveness - EUDRAGIT^® L and S polymers are your preferred choice of coating polymers. They enable targeting specific areas of the intestine. Evonik offers a broad product portfolio of anionic EUDRAGIT^® grades which dissolve at rising PH values. In addition, the different grades can be combined with each other, making it possible to adjust the dissolution pH, and thus to achieve the required GI targeting for the drug.

EUDRAGIT^® offers valuable advantages for your enteric coatings:

• PH-dependent drug release
• Protection of actives sensitive to gastric fluid
• Protection of gastric mucosa from aggressive actives
• Increase in drug effectiveness
• Good storage stability
• GI and colon targeting
