ABSTRACT Orally administered drugs are provided to the patients in many dosage forms, including solid forms such as capsules, tablets and liquid forms such as solutions, emulsions or suspensions. Pharmaceuticals administered in solid form are usually intended to be swallowed whole. Often the disagreeable taste of a drug does not need to be considered in formulating swallow able tablets or capsules. Because these dosage forms are in the mouth such a short time the pharmaceuticals taste can easily be masked with an exterior coating on the tablet. Children, older persons, and many other persons including disabled or incapacitated patients often have trouble swallowing tablets or capsules. In these situations, it is desirable to provide the drug either in a chewable solid form or a liquid form. Keywords: capsules, tablets, liquid, emulsions, suspensions.
