A recent innovation is the gelatin-coated tablet. The innovator product, the gelcap, is a capsule-shaped compressed tablet (Fig. 8.4) that allows the coated product to be about one-third smaller than a capsule filled with an equivalent amount of powder. The gelatin coating facilitates swallowing, and gelatin-coated tablets are more tamper evident than unsealed capsules. Examples include Tylenol Cold Multi-Symptom Daytime (McNeil Consumer).
