Protect your ingredients.
Delivering acid-sensitive supplement products can be a challenge for health and nutrition companies. Protecting ingredients from stomach acids to maintain potency is crucial – but it can require complex enteric coating formulations and manufacturing techniques, expensive packaging, and use of solvents many dietary supplement consumers find unacceptable.
DRcaps® capsules are made with an innovative hypromellose (HPMC) formulation that can help protect sensitive ingredients from the low pH environment of the stomach – without the cost and complexity of adding acid-resistant properties during manufacturing. The low moisture level of DRcaps® can also be exploited to accomodate hydroscopic ingredients
The vegetarian option -your market demands
Vegetarian society-certified, Kosher- certified and vegan approved, DRcaps® capsules offer an appealing solution for vegetarian-aware consumers – about 35%* of the population and those with cultural or dietary requirements. This key market is known to take more supplements than the general population and to prefer supplements from vegetarian sources without solvents and other unnatural ingredients.
Supplement benefits without the aftertaste and smell
By protecting against early disintegration,DRcaps® capsules reduce the potential for unpleasant odors, aftertaste and reflux from supplements such as garlic or valerian root. In addition, consumers prefer capsules because they consider them easier to swallow and gentle onthe stomach.
Powerful branding potential to differentiate your products.
• Highlight a “promise of performance” for your products with sensitive ingredients.
• Promote greater comfort for consumers who take certain ingrediants such as garlic or valerian root.
• Leverage “new and improved” labeling for retail differentiation.
• Promote your vegetarian solution to fit customer needs.
• Create a family of “protected products”.
Proven targeted release for acid-sensitive ingredients.
DRcaps® capsules help protect nutritional supplement ingredients that are sensitive to stomach acid. The innovative DRcaps® capsule targets release after an extended time period, protecting ingredients from degradation in the stomach.
DRcaps® capsules disintegration peformance in human subjects
The study was designed to investigate the in vivo behavior of unbanded DRcaps® capsules using qualitative and quantitative scintigraphic methods to assess the GI transit of DRcaps® capsules and the release of capsule contents based on the scintigraphic images obtained.
Each subject consumed a light breakfast approximately 30 minutes prior to dosing a DRcaps® capsule
containing 300mg of lactose, 10mg of which was radiolabelled.* Anterior and posterior images were taken after dosing and then every 5 minutes up to four hours post-dose.
Key Study Results
• DRcaps® capsules displayed delayed release properties
• Disintegration started approximately 45 minutes later than a typical immediate release capsule of about 5 minutes.
• For the majority of subjects, complete release took place in the intestine
• Complete release occurred 20 minutes after the onset of release
• DRcaps® capsules significantly reduced opportunity for nutritional ingredient degradation compared with standard immediate release capsules.

we know people like to test, here are most common mistake:
1. test in the water, and see it becomes soften, and think that is not acid resistant.
2. test in the mouth, and find it becomes soften, and think it is not acid resistant
soften doesn’t mean leaking , please check our knowledeg centre and find out how capsugel test it the right way .

Here is the feedback from out customers
These have been a god send. My long term medication for CUTI (hiprex and antibiotics) are very difficult to take as harsh on the tummy causing nausea, burning, reflux etc. If i encapsulate them in the enteric coated capsules they don’t release until they hit the small intestine so all them nasty side effected no longer happen. Without these i wouldn’t be able to stay on my medication and be extremely unwell so I am very grateful these are available!
We have tested nearly all enteric empty capsules, and to our knowledge, this is the best one currently available on the market.

Detailed Explanation of Regulatory Changes and Guidelines
1. Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) Ban in Food Products
- EU Ban on TiO₂ as a Food Additive (E171):
On February 18, 2022, the European Commission enforced a regulation banning the use of Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) as a food additive under the designation E171. This decision was based on findings by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) which raised concerns over the potential genotoxicity of TiO₂, meaning it could potentially cause damage to DNA and possibly lead to cancer. - Scope of the Ban:
The ban specifically applies to the use of TiO₂ as a colorant in food products. This includes, but is not limited to, products such as confectionery, chewing gum, sauces, and food supplements. As a result, TiO₂ is no longer permitted as an ingredient in these types of products within the EU market.
2. Exemptions and Permitted Uses
- Pharmaceuticals (Medicinal Products):
Despite the ban on TiO₂ in food products, its use is still permitted in medicinal products. The European regulation explicitly exempts pharmaceuticals from this ban. The reasoning behind this exemption lies in the fact that the safety assessment for TiO₂ in pharmaceuticals is handled separately. Within this context, TiO₂ is deemed safe for use as a colorant, particularly in capsules and tablet coatings where it serves essential functions like enhancing visual appeal and protecting the active ingredients from light exposure.The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has verified that TiO₂ can continue to be used in medicinal products, ensuring that its safety is thoroughly evaluated for each specific medication. - Food Supplements in Capsules or Tablet Form: While the ban covers food products, including supplements, the regulatory environment surrounding TiO₂ in food supplements in capsule or tablet form remains somewhat ambiguous. The EU regulation does not categorically ban TiO₂ in these forms; however, due to the broad scope of the ban on food products, manufacturers and distributors are encouraged to avoid the use of TiO₂ in food supplements to prevent potential regulatory complications.
- Regulatory Advice:
Given the regulatory environment, it is advised that any use of capsules containing TiO₂ in food supplements should be approached with caution. For this reason, if capsules containing TiO₂ are purchased, it is assumed they are intended for medical use, where TiO₂ is still legally permissible.
