Film coatings are commonly made of polymers such as cellulose derivatives, acrylic polymers, and ethylcellulose. Sugar coatings, on the other hand, are made of sucrose and other sweeteners. The selection of coating material is based on the drugs physicochemical properties, intended use, and desired release profile. The application of Coating Material can significantly enhance the drugs therapeutic effectiveness and patient compliance.
