@SleepyCatten anything but direct release requires either chemical encapsulation and/or layering into slowly dissolving material.
- If it was as easy as advertised then the Oxycontin - co-created #OpioidCrisis would not have grown that much and that quickly.
I mean, I know a [fmr.] material scientist who worked on encapsulation techniques but getting a slow release effectively and reproduceably done is a challenge in and of itself, as also absorbtion rate and dissolvement rate rapidly fluctuates between individuals and for it to work it needs to be rather consistent.
- Kinda like how any fizzy tablet is dissolving differently fast whether one has water, isotonic salt solution and whether the PH is 1 or 15.
