Capsulas de sabores

Oral Pharmaceuticals such as capsules and tablets face a bigger challenge for pediatric patients and their parents when examining the difficulty that the kids encounter when they have to swallow medication. As a result, this situation interrupts the success in the treatment taking into account that kids refuse to take these kinds of pharmaceuticals.

Farmacapsulas has developed capsules with diverse flavors and colors in order to address the pediatric market, the use of sweets and enjoyable flavors facilitate the administration of medications taken orally, furthermore the use of bright colors and entertaining forms of the capsules awakens the interest in the kid to take his medicines.

  • FunCaps™: Are intended for pediatric products, because it generates the idea to merge five capsule flavors in one product, also with the chance to impregnate animal figures on them.
