Excipients

Enhance formulations with specialty excipients

Finding the right excipient can be the difference between success and failure of a new drug. Specialty excipients are capable of significantly enhancing the performance of drug product formulations by modulating properties including stability, solubility and bioavailability, and forms such as orally disintegrating tablets, orodispersible films and oral liquids require a more careful taste design. Our high-quality excipient portfolio – including GMP-compliant vitamins and vitamin derivatives, as well as flavors and taste modulators – can help to overcome complex formulation challenges. 

We partner with our customers to find the right solution for the development of safe and effective drug formulations. Our specialty ingredients can support both small and large molecule products, backed by extensive regulatory and technical know-how. From improving the functionality of products to optimizing taste profile for better patient compliance, we help our customers formulate with success.
