During the CPHI Barcelona conference in October, European Pharmaceutical Review spoke with Julien Lamps, an expert from Lonza CHI, about the important changes and trends affecting the development of medication capsules. Julien works as the Associate Director of Global Product Management at Lonza, which specializes in capsules and health ingredients. In a video interview, he shared the most important factors that capsule makers need to consider today. These include a growing emphasis on environmentally friendly practices, making medications that meet patient needs, and ensuring products can be manufactured efficiently at a large scale. Julien also discussed upcoming changes in regulations, such as the European Union’s decision to ban the use of titanium dioxide in food products, and explained how this ban could impact the development of capsules for medications in the future.
