Turning Pharmaceutical Concepts into Scalable Products

Medicap Laboratories provides pharmaceutical product development services for companies developing new or differentiated oral solid dosage products.

Our development capabilities combine formulation expertise, analytical support, manufacturing knowledge, and proprietary drug delivery technologies to help customers move products from concept toward commercialization.

End-to-End Product Development

Successful pharmaceutical development requires more than formulation development alone.

It requires an understanding of:

  • Active pharmaceutical ingredients

  • Excipients

  • Drug release

  • Manufacturing processes

  • Analytical methods

  • Scale-up

  • Stability

  • Regulatory requirements

  • Commercial manufacturing

Our integrated CDMO model allows these elements to be evaluated together.

Our Product Development Capabilities

Understanding the physical and chemical characteristics of the API and identifying formulation considerations.

  • Formulation Development

    Development and optimization of oral solid dosage formulations based on product objectives.

  • Process Development

    Development of scalable manufacturing processes suitable for pilot and commercial production.

  • Analytical Development

    Development of appropriate analytical approaches to evaluate product quality and performance.

  • Scale-Up

    Transitioning laboratory or pilot processes toward larger-scale manufacturing.

  • Technology Transfer

    Supporting transfer of formulations and manufacturing processes between development and manufacturing environments.

Immediate and Modified Release Products

Medicap has experience supporting different drug-release requirements.

Our proprietary technologies can also be evaluated for products requiring differentiated drug challenges.

Our Capabilities include development consideration for:

  • Immediate-release products
  • Extended-release product
  • Controlled-release products
  • Modified-release products

Proprietary Drug Delivery Technologies
