Abstract: Asymmetric membrane capsule are novel non-disintegrating polymeric capsule made by a phase inversion process in which the membrane structure was precipitated on stainless steel mold pins by dipping the mold pins into a coating solution containing a polymer solvent non solvent system followed by dipping into a quench solution. The resulting asymmetric membrane wall was composed of a thin dense region supported on a thicker porous region. The asymmetric membrane capsule can be filled with a blend of the active agent and excipients for use in the active agent and excipients for use in osmotic drug delivery application.
