The successful development of Chinese patent medicine quality film coating

The low-grade and non-standard packaging of Chinese medicine has always been an important issue affecting the integration of Chinese medicine and international standards.

In the traditional Chinese medicine tablet, the outer layer was made of sugar and talcum powder. The “sugar coating” easily absorbs moisture from the air and gets wet. After cracking, it affects the efficacy and even deterioration.

Recently, the National TCM Pharmaceutical Engineering Technology Research Center has developed a film coating that completely solves the problems of fading, splintering, moisture reversion, and deterioration, so that the traditional Chinese medicine pill can guarantee a three-year warranty period, and the price is less than “sugar coating”. Reduced by 10%, is conducive to Chinese medicine to the international market.
