Softgel capsules are a pre-formed oral dosage form composed of a gelatin-based shell surrounding a liquid or semi-solid inner fill. This type of dose form provides enhanced stability, improved accuracy in dosing, and increased bioavailability due to the protective outer shell. Softgel capsules are increasingly used in nutraceuticals due to their improved bioavailability, extended shelf life, enhanced stability of active ingredients, and cost-effectiveness compared to other dosage forms. Softgel capsules are an ideal delivery solution for targeted dosages due to their quickly dissolving capabilities, ensuring that the active ingredients are efficiently absorbed into the bloodstream for maximum effectiveness. Additionally, many consumers are adopting soft gel capsules for cosmetics and health supplements due to higher absorption rates than powders or tablets, giving them a more effective dosage of vitamins and minerals. The need for specific manufacturing equipment, fluctuating costs of raw materials, and issues in quality parameters limit their penetration worldwide. However, the ongoing advancements in manufacturing and packaging soft gel capsules with growing consumer preference for online pharmacy channels are anticipated to create growth opportunities for the soft gel capsules market in the coming years.
