Disintegrants are materials or mixtures of substances added in the drug formulations, which make easier dispersion or breakup of tablets and ingredients of capsules in small-scale particles for fast dissolution then it comes in contact with water in the GI tract. Immediate drug release dosage forms…

Introduction Thin films are polymeric strips that disintegrate in the oral cavity and consist of a film-forming agent and an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). Generally, thin films disintegrate within seconds, but their composition can be modified to allow slower disintegration and release of…
