Pharma Excipients
DC excipient
SEPITRAP™ offers new possibilities for formulation and improving the bioavailability of active…
Description
SEPITRAP™ is a micro-encapsulated solubilizer in powder form designed to simplify the manufacturing of solid oral form drugs. It is manufactured by adsorption of the solubilizer in liquid form on a porous support.
SEPITRAP™ is both a solid solubilizer and a compression agent.…

Impact of dry coating lactose as a brittle excipient on multi-component blend processability
Abstract
Previous work demonstrated the benefits of dry coating fine-grade microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) for enabling direct compression (DC), a favored tablet manufacturing method, due to enhanced flowability while retaining good compactability of placebo and binary blends of cohesive APIs.…

Fabrication and Optimization of Directly Compressible Self-Emulsifying Tablets Containing Cannabis…
Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol, which are present in cannabis extract, exhibit low bioavailability when administered orally due to significant first-pass metabolism. The use of a self-emulsifying drug delivery system (SEDDS) can enhance their dissolution and bioavailability. However, liquid…

Formulation and Preparation of Losartan-Potassium-Loaded Controlled-Release Matrices Using Ethocel…
In the current study, matrices of losartan potassium were formulated with two different polymers (Ethocel 10 premium and Ethocel 10FP premium), along with a filler and a lubricant, at different drug-to-polymer w/w ratios (10:3, 10:4, and 10:5). The matrices were tested by the direct compression…

Novel bioequivalent oral disintegrating tablet of aripiprazole prepared by direct compression…
Herein, we aimed to formulate a novel oral disintegrating tablet (ODT) of aripiprazole (ARP) capable of rapid disintegration using a direct compression technique. Different ODTs were fabricated with directly compressible excipients, and their disintegration time, wettability (water absorption ratio…
