3D Printing of Oral Solid Dosage Forms
Innovative technology, whole new possibilities – three-dimensional (3D) printing enables new approaches, especially in the context of drug production. Also referred to as additive manufacturing, 3D printing targets two hot topics of the pharmaceutical industry: personalized medicine and on-demand production. In fact, there’s an emerging trend to step away from mass manufacturing in favor of more personalized solutions. The reason: A strong demand for improved treatment options meeting individual patient needs, especially regarding pediatric and geriatric patients. But there’s more: 3D printing can also be key to shorter drug development times by supplying clinical trial material during the early stages.
However, in order to leverage the full potential of this highly digitalized technology, specialized excipients are required – as well as the integration of smart applications for self optimization or automated formulation development.
Our product offering is supported by the Emprove® Program with comprehensive documentation to speed up your way to the market. Whenever applicable, our products are compliant with the major pharmacopeias.
