Sustained release coatings are designed to eliminate the need for multiple dosage regimens, particularly for those drugs whose action benefits from achieving reasonably constant blood levels over longer periods. Sustained release coatings are used for the drugs that need to be administered in high doses in the body. Sustained release coating products typically contain higher drug loadings than instant release (IR) products. Benefits of sustained release coating tablets include:

It releases more slowly into the bloodstream
It provides the ability to maintain a constant level of medication within the body
It decreases side effects
It reduces sleep disruption due to breakthrough pain
It reduces the number of doses which lowers expenses and improves patient compliance, especially for chronic diseases

Market Dynamics
