Many of Andrx's controlled-release bioequivalent and brand name pharmaceuticals utilize Andrx's proprietary drug delivery technologies to control the release characteristics of a variety of orally administered drugs. Controlled-release products are formulations that release active drug compounds in the body gradually and predictably over a 12 to 24-hour period and therefore need to be taken only once or twice daily, as opposed to immediate release products that have to be taken 3-4 times per day. Controlled-release products typically provide numerous benefits over immediate-release drugs.
Andrx maintains five manufacturing facilities with approximately 550,000 square feet of production and production support space. Production capability includes state of the art equipment for both controlled-release and immediate-release products including computerized fluid-bed coaters, high speed tablet presses and encapsulation machinery, aqueous and solvent capable tablet coaters and high capacity packaging lines.
