Difference between softgel and capsule :
Softgels
Softgels comes etymologically from the Latin capsula, which means box (or small chest) and refers to a gummy, soluble, tasteless wrapper or envelope that coats certain medicines of liquid or paste consistency. Due to the nature of its container, the capsule coating is soft.
Capsule
The capsule is a combination of gelatin and capsule, and consists of a gelatinous capsule with a coating made up of two interlocking parts. Capsules contain powder.
