|
| Acts faster |
| Faster absorption means faster onset of action,
critical in treating acute symptoms such as pain.
Buffered preparations with adjustable stomach pH optimize
formula performance characteristics. Effervescent
drugs are delivered to the stomach at a pH that is just
right for absorption. |
| Many medications travel slowly through the
gastrointestinal tract or have absorption that is hampered
by food or other drugs. To achieve desired absorption
levels, such drugs are often administered as injections or
with increased dosages. |
|
| Easier to swallow |
| Effervescent medications go down easier than
tablets or capsules because patients swallow them in liquid
form. |
|
| Gentler on the digestive tract |
| Effervescent drug products dissolve fully in a buffered
solution. Reduced localized contact in the upper
gastrointestinal tract can mean less irritation and greater
tolerability. Buffering also prevents gastric acids
from interacting with the drugs themselves, which can be a
major cause of stomach and esophageal upsets. |
|
| More portable |
| Effervescent medicine is more easily transported than liquid
medication because no water is added until it's ready to
use. One effervescent tablet can often take the place
of multiple tablets, capsules and even injections. |
|
| Better tasting |
| Drugs delivered with EffRx's patented technology
taste better than most liquids, mixtures and suspensions.
EffRx's superior taste masking is achieved by limiting
objectionable characteristics and complementing formulations
with flavors and fragrances. Effervescent
pharmaceuticals retain their flavor after lengthy storage. |
|
| Superior stability |
| Excellent stability and portability is inherent
with effervescent formulations, particularly surpassing
liquid forms. |
|
| More consistent response |
| Drugs delivered using effervescent technology
have very predictable and reproducible pharmacokinetic
profiles that are much more consistent than tablets or
capsules. |
