Polish term or phrase: drażowanie
Coating again? There is the term dragee from which this is derived, but I would like alternative expressions.

English translation:sugar coating/sugar coating process
Explanation:
Drażowanie = sugar coating/sugar coating process

“Drażetki” are sugar coated, so the process is called “sugar coating”.
Ref:
„Drażetki (tabletki powlekane otoczką cukrową)” (http://www.produkcjakontraktowa.pliva.pl/formysuche.html)
“In the sugar-coating process, a core is given up to 100 coatings” (http://www.tropon.de/englisch/3_1_3___lackierung-dragierung/...
“Practice the steps of sugar coating process and learn how to solve problems arising during the process”

But in the English version there are „coated tablets” and “sugar coated tablets”, which is wrong. “Coated tablets” are sugar coated! See: “Coated tablets not otherwise specified (NOS) including sugar coated tablets” “Film-coated tablets; the coating is a very thin film.” (http://www.ephmra.org/nfc/9_000bcodes.html)
I have Standard Terms 2000 – a reference book by Council of Europe with names of Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms in 20 languages (recommended by Polish Regulatory Authority – Urząd Rejestracji…), where:
Coated tablet (Eng) = Tabletka drażowana (Pl) (i.e. drażetka) and obalena tableta (Cz), uberzogenne Tablette (De) etc.
Film-coated tablet (Eng) = tabletka powlekana (Pl) and filmom obalena tableta (Cz), Filmtablette (De) etc.
