Orally Disintegrating Dosage Forms (O.D.D):

Products formulated specifically for children, adolescents, young adults and geriatric consumer markets are the fastest-growing category of Rx drugs. Many times FDA is granting exclusivity to many drugs. Good for therapeutic categories such as Cancer, AIDS, Diabetes, Cardiovascular, CNS, and Alzheimer’. Patients can use better dosage forms such as O.D.D for good taste and for taking the drug without the use of water. Rapid dispersible tablets, Rapidmelt and Disperse beads are some of the forms available in O.D.D. These dosage forms disperse in ten to twenty seconds in oral cavity without water. Capricorn has developed and started manufacturing these unique delivery systems.


Capricorn has developed five distinct orally disintegrating dosage (O.D.D) forms:
