Products and Services The oral route is generally consid- ered a simple and cost-efficient way of drug delivery, primarily using tablets or capsules. However, recent data suggest that difficulties swallow- ing tablets/capsules are a widespread problem, occurring across all age groups and potentially impacting treatment success. These findings indicate that conventional solid dosage forms may not be the best option for all individuals, and often fail to keep pace with the evolving needs of modern patients. HERMES PHARMA is the expert in developing and manufacturing effervescent and chewable tablets, lozenges, instant drinks and orally disintegrating granules. These user-friendly dosage forms • Are easy to swallow – even for people with dysphagia. • Taste great – even if the API is bitter. • Integrate easily into the busy lives of modern patients. • Are easy to ingest – even with a large API content or dosage size. • Can be taken with or without liquids to suit the individual. • Offer a variety of choices in terms of flavor. • Improve patient experience through enhanced convenience. • Allow greater amounts and different combinations of API to be delivered in a single dose, simplifying treatment regimens. Together, these benefits can help to increase compliance and will likely boost the effectiveness of a treatment.
