RESOMER® Polymers

Evonik’s line of RESOMER® lactide-based polymers are specially designed excipients for controlled-release drug formulations in the medical and pharmaceutical industries. Available with a range of base chemistries, inherent viscosity ranges, and degradation rates, these polymers offer formulation versatility and meet profile requirements. These polymers are engineered to optimize the delivery of drugs, ensuring a consistent release over a desired period of time. This controlled-release capability is crucial for maintaining therapeutic levels of a drug in the bloodstream, enhancing efficacy, and improving patient compliance. Moreover, RESOMER® polymers are compatible with a variety of drug compounds, making them suitable for diverse applications ranging from injectables to implants. Their biodegradability ensures they break down safely in the body, reducing potential risks of long-term side effects and the need for surgical removal.

Tailored drug release profiles: RESOMER® polymers can be customized to achieve specific drug release profiles, allowing for precise control over medication delivery.
Improved patient compliance: By providing a range of drug release options, RESOMER® polymers can help reduce the frequency of dosing, making it easier for patients to adhere to their treatment regimens.
Enhanced bioavailability: RESOMER® polymers can be designed to optimize drug release and absorption, improving the bioavailability of medications.
Reduced injection pain: RESOMER® polymers can be used to create injectable formulations with reduced viscosity, making injections less painful for patients.
Increased formulation flexibility: RESOMER® polymers can be combined with other excipients and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) to create a wide range of drug delivery systems.
