Many oral medicines and bulking agents are bitter. Bitterness masking is vital for patient compliance. Many formulations with increased performance and acceptance have been developed to improve palatability. The disagreeable taste of formulation has been disguised by sensory, barrier, chemical, and complexity methods. Taste is acknowledged as a crucial component in patient compliance, especially in youngsters, where acceptability and hence ease of administration may be considerably altered. The methods used to hide the taste of medications are detailed in this review. Taste is a key factor in oral product adoption. Many oral medications, foods, and bulking agents have unpleasant bitter flavours. Oral administration of bitter medications is a major concern for health care practitioners, particularly for juvenile patients. Masking a drug__ampersandsignrsquo;s disagreeable taste increases patient compliance and thereby profits. Various known procedures have been used to remove or reduce the bitterness of these medications, but no generally applicable methodology has been identified.&#13;
