Abstract

The invention relates to developing a novel water and capsule formulation using fenofibrate which is difficult to dissolve and control its release rate in vitro. For example, the invention relates to the creation of capsules and wafers comprising: fenofibrate, a surfactant, a carrier wax, a film former, a plasticizer, and optionally a super disintegrant or other ingredients. The invention further relates to the process of forming such capsules and wafers.
