Methacrylic Acid is a monomer/a resin used as an adhesive for
binding.It is used in the coating of tablets.

Methacrylic acid is toxic beyond a certain extend but the Drug
companies follow the FDA regulations for safety amonts of Methacrylic
acid in a capsule/drug.

All drugs manufactured in USA follow the FDA safety limit for
Methacrylic acid in tables and this holds true for Solgar Vitamins.
