中文简体A delayed release capsule is a type of medication that is designed to release its active ingredient(s) at a specific time or location in the body. The capsule is formulated in such a way that it resists disintegration in the acidic environment of the stomach, and instead releases its contents in the alkaline environment of the small intestine. This delayed release can be achieved by using special coatings or other technologies to control the rate at which the capsule breaks down and the active ingredient(s) are released.
Delayed-release capsules are often used for medications that can cause irritation or damage to the stomach lining, or that need to be absorbed in the small intestine for optimal effectiveness. Common examples include medications for acid reflux, ulcers, and inflammatory bowel disease. By delaying the release of the active ingredient(s), delayed-release capsules can also help to extend the duration of action of the medication, allowing for less frequent dosing and improved patient compliance.
