Optionally, cores/tablets can be coated with conventional materials used for
film coating, i. e. as described in "Pharmaceutical Coating Technology", 1995,
edited
by Graham Cole. Film coating formulations usually contain the following
components: polymer (s), plasticizer (s), colourant (s) /opacifier (s),
vehicle (s). In
film coating suspension the minor quantities of flavours, surfactants and
waxes can be
used. The majority of the polymers used in film coating are either cellulose
derivatives, such as the cellulose ethers, or acrylic polymers and copolymers.

Occasionally encountered are high molecular weight polyethylene glycols,
polyvinyl
pyrrolidone, polyvinyl alcohol and waxy materials. Typical cellulose ethers
are
hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose
and
methylcellulose. Acrylic polymers comprise a group of synthetic polymers with
diverse functionalities. Some of them can be further modified to enhance
swelling and
permeability by the incorporation of materials such as water soluble cellulose
ethers
and starches in order to ensure complete disintegration/ dissolution of the
film.
