The Importance of Flavor in Tablet Products

Tablets are among the most common dosage forms for medicinal, dietary, and wellness products. However, consumers often associate tablets with unpleasant or bland tastes, especially when it comes to chewable supplements or medications. At Universal Flavours & Fragrance, we believe that a well-crafted flavor can transform the tablet experience, making it more pleasant and engaging for users.

• Chewable Tablets: Whether for vitamins, minerals, or other dietary supplements, chewable tablets need to mask any bitter or unpleasant base ingredients. A great flavor can enhance their appeal and encourage consumers, especially children, to take their supplements regularly.
• Effervescent Tablets: These dissolvable tablets often form drinks, making flavor a vital component of the overall experience. A refreshing and balanced taste is crucial for product enjoyment and repeat purchases.
• Medicinal Tablets: Flavored coatings or dissolvable formulations for over-the-counter medications can make the experience of taking medicine more pleasant, particularly for children or consumers sensitive to taste.
