In one aspect, the present disclosure pertains to elutable coating compositions that comprise an excipient comprising a bio-degradable or bio-stable polymer selected from a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) or methyl cellulose (MCC), a binding agent; a therapeutic agent. In some embodiments, the elutable coating compositions further comprise a solvent, in which case such compositions may be, for example, applied to a substrate in the form of a layer and subsequently dried, thereby forming an elutable coating on the substrate.

Drug release coating compositions

Methods are disclosed including methods for crystallizing a material such as a drug. An example method may include combining a nucleation initiator, a surfactant solution, and an amorphous form of a drug to form a drug precursor dispersion/suspension. The method may also include incubating the drug precursor dispersion/suspension to allow the drug to convert from the amorphous form to a crystalline form.
