About the Softgel Capsule Market

The Softgel Capsule market is a segment of the Drug Delivery industry. Softgel capsules are a type of oral dosage form that are composed of a gelatin-based shell and a liquid or semi-solid core. They are used to deliver a variety of drugs, including vitamins, minerals, and other dietary supplements. Softgel capsules are advantageous because they are easy to swallow, have a longer shelf life, and can be used to deliver drugs with a narrow therapeutic window. Softgel capsules are also used to deliver drugs with a bitter taste, as the gelatin shell can mask the taste. Additionally, they can be used to deliver drugs that are sensitive to oxygen, as the gelatin shell provides a barrier against oxygen. The Softgel Capsule market is highly competitive, with a number of companies offering a variety of products. Some of the major players in the market include Capsugel, Catalent, EuroCaps, and Qualicaps. Show Less Read more
