As a plasticizer, triethyl citrate is commonly used to enhance the plasticity of coating materials in pharmaceutical formulations. Its applications in coating encompass various dosage forms—including capsules, tablets, pellets, and granules—and serve purposes such as taste masking, as well as facilitating immediate-release, sustained-release, or enteric-coated formulations.
