Pharmaceutical HPMC Capsule
Pharmaceutical HPMC Capsule
HPMC capsules are produced via a renewable plant-based resource, cellulose, typically obtained from wood or cotton. Chemically, it is a methyl and hydroxypropyl group substituted with anhydroglucose units, which are sourced from cellulose.
HPMC is compliant with the norms of major pharmaceutical regulatory bodies, and is permitted as a food additive for human consumption. For nutraceutical brands stressing products with plant-based origins, they can be certified by designation authorities such as Vegan USA and Vegetarian Society UK, as well as organizations that bestow kosher and halal certifications. Non-GMO (genetically modified organism) verification also is available.
Advantages of Pharmaceutical HPMC Capsule
Pharmaceutical HPMC Capsule production process
There are two manufacturing methods that can be employed to produce HPMC capsules, differentiated by the temperature of the pin used to mold them. With a cold process, gelation occurs between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius. However, to achieve this gelling, co-gelling agents must be added to the composition. Often, machines used to produce gelatin-based capsules cannot be utilized to create HPMC versions, as they lack the ability to accomplish this mission-critical step.
