🎦 90‑Second Demo

Watch: Sprinkle Mesacol Granules

New‑Look Introduction

Swallowing six tablets feels like homework; Mesacol 2 g Granules compress that dose into a zesty‑orange‑flavoured sachet. Sun Pharma’s micro‑beads measure just 1 mm and wear a pH 7.0 trigger coat—bursting in the right colon then coasting toward the rectum. At ₹170 (~$2) per sachet, once‑daily regimens become financially and mentally lighter, driving adherence from 74 % to 88 % in clinic audits.

What Sets It Apart

Travel Genius: One slim packet vs a pill bottle—slide into passport wallet.
No Chew Drama: Pour directly on tongue or blend with applesauce; beads stay intact.
Flexible Dosing: Split the sachet for paediatric weight‑based plans.

Fast Facts on Release

Eudragit‑S coat dissolves at pH ≥ 7 → payload starts in terminal ileum.
Granules keep releasing for 6 h → covers entire colon.
Plasma 5‑ASA Cmax ~ 2 µg/mL → low systemic exposure.
