Product Line Extension with User-Friendly Solid Dosage Forms

HERMES PHARMA is an expert in developing and manufacturing user-friendly solid oral dosage forms such as effervescent and chewable tablets, lozenges, instant drinks and orally disintegrating granules. These dosage forms are rapidly gaining acceptance with consumers and healthcare providers as they are easier and more convenient for patients to take, therefore boosting treatment compliance and effectiveness.

Good-tasting medicines that, for example, can be dissolved in water, chewed or sucked are much easier to swallow than conventional tablets or capsules. They provide tangible benefits, especially for older patients who often suffer from dysphagia. However, difficulties in swallowing occur in all age groups, especially with patients on long-term medication and children who commonly have a high sensitivity to bitter-tasting substances and experience difficulty in ingesting adult-sized tablets.

As a division of Hermes Arzneimittel, a leading German provider of branded high-quality medicines, HERMES PHARMA offers customised solutions at every point along the pharmaceutical value chain, from the development of new, user-friendly products, to manufacturing and regulatory support.

User-friendly dosage forms are a great opportunity to expand existing product lines, prolong product lifecycles and revitalise brands. Such line extensions can lead to increased customer loyalty, greater brand value and stronger differentiation from competition.
