Abstract: The present invention relates to a capsule shell with two parts, a cap and a body, the two parts engage telescopically with each other, the capsule shell is used for storing solid substances in powder or granular form and shows a minimized leakage rate of powder when the capsule shell is filled with the solid substances in powder form and is closed.

Abstract: A comestible dosage form article, in the form of a hard capsule, for administration to a target subject, the dosage form comprising at least one body and at least one cap telescopically engageable with the body, the cap and the body being separable such to allow dispensing of a contents therefrom. The capsule comprising a sensory trigger over at least a portion of the outer surface of the capsule arranged to provide a visual, taste, and/or tactile deterrence to ingestion thereof.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a separable hard capsule for containing a medication. The capsule may be opened by finger force and used, for example, by pediatric and geriatric patients.

Abstract: A dosage form article suitable for oral administration may include more than one compartment, each formed by a plurality of distinct segments of the dosage form article. The dosage form article may also include a signaling means and a drug, wherein the signaling means and the drug are each stored in different compartments physically separated from one another. Both the drug and the signaling means may be wholly incorporated within the dosage form article, the respective compartments being arranged to fully enclose the drug and signaling means only when at least two of the plurality of distinct segments are connected.

Abstract: A dosage form article suitable for oral administration, comprising more than one compartments each delimited by a plurality of distinct segments selected from the group consisting of body parts, cap parts and combinations thereof. The dosage form article comprises: at least one first body part and at least one first cap part each comprising inner and outer surfaces, wherein the first body and cap parts are telescopically engageable; and at least one second body part, comprising inner and outer surfaces, being telescopically engageable with the at least one first body or cap parts or both. The at least one of the second body parts is arranged within the at least one first body part or cap part or both such that a distinct first compartment is formed between the outer surface of the second body part and the inner surface of the first body part or cap part or both.
