Non Gelatin capsule dosage form: Non gelatin hard capsule Inclusion of an anti-oxidant in the fill formulation or packaging the capsule into an oxygen-resistant configuration such as blister package with aluminum foil may prevent this oxidative damage. One limitation of HPMC capsule shell is higher oxygen permeability due to looseness in its structure, which warrants caution for oxygen sensitive compounds. Compared to gelatin, HPMC is a nonionic polymer and it has less compatibility changes with most encapsulated material and aldehyde impurities present therein. Another advantage of HPMC shell is polar and hygroscopic solvents in the fill formulations are less likely to migrate to capsule shell or interact with shell material. HPMC shells are less hygroscopic and subsequently moisture transfer to encapsulated material is low which are great advantages for the improved stability of the medicinal product in capsules. HPMC shells contain low moisture at about 2%–6% and are less hygroscopic compared to their counterpart hard gelatin capsule shells. HPMC hard shells are less dependent on moisture content for integrity and thus cells are resistant to breakage even in dry conditions. Hence, vegetarian versus nonvegetarian distinction in case of drugs was rejected.Īdvantage of Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose hard cells over gelatin shells Again, categorizing non-lifesaving drugs only as vegetarian or nonvegetarian is also absurd as there is no fixed criteria to categorize drugs as lifesaving or nonlifesaving, as depending on patient's condition, an ordinary drug may become lifesaving. As many of the medical products are of nonvegetarian origin, choice cannot be left to individuals when it comes to community health. In another case by the Indian Soaps and Toiletries Makers Association versus Ozair Husain, (2013) 3 SCC 641-A, the Supreme Court mentioned that, in terms of medical conditions, life of patient is of utmost importance. Members further felt that it also cannot be certified that the contents in the capsule are purely of vegetarian origin, as many chemicals or ingredients of manufacturing system are of nonvegetarian origin. Further, the matter was referred to the Drugs Technical Advisory Board (DTAB) where it was found that the matter pertains not only to drugs but also to other products and hence the matter is beyond the scope of the DTAB, and the Ministry of Health may take a policy decision on this in consultation with other ministries regarding this. The story started with a proposal received to the CDSCO to replace gelatin capsules with cellulose-based capsules.
