Non-gelatinous capsule film compositions containing as the base a starch hydrolyzate having an average DE of less than 10 and an average molecular weight of not more than 30,000. These non-gelatinous capsule film compositions have stable moisture absorbing/releasing properties and strength to such extent as sufficiently withstanding the production and storage as products and yet achieve excellent disintegration properties in vivo. Also, capsules produced by using the non-gelatinous capsule film compositions as described above are provided.
