DBcaps Over-encapsulation Capsules
For containment and blinding of comparator products in double-blinding studies, look to DBcaps® capsules.
Specially Designed for Clinical Trials
We developed DBcaps two-piece gelatin or HPMC capsules with a tamper evident design to specifically address the clinical trial challenges of testing without bias.
The wider diameter of opaque DBcaps capsules allows containment and blinding of large-diameter or uniquely-shaped tablets or other comparator products, while their shorter length makes them easier to swallow.
DBcaps Capsule Advantages
We’ve designed this capsule with key advantages:
- Eight different sizes of DBcaps capsules are always in stock for double blinding a wide variety of comparator product shapes and sizes – no need to split, grind or alter your original dosage form
- Active comparator products can be discreetly enclosed to improve patient compliance and tamper evident design prevent bias
- Avoid concerns regarding alteration of the dosage form since there is no need to split or grind tablets
- A long, established safety record means stability testing is kept to a minimum and bioequivalency testing may be reduced or eliminated
- Choose from five standard globally accepted colors to ease regulatory acceptance or select a custom formulated color to meet your needs
- Outstanding quality – manufactured in accordance with cGMP guidelines with certified quality assurance system for traceability of raw materials
DBCaps capsules can be ordered in any quantity and are also available in a convenient CapsuleCaddy™ Container, perfect for clinical trial batches and R&D projects.
