A dry powder inhaled liposomal azithromycin formulation was developed for the treatment of chronic respiratory diseases such as cystic fibrosis and bronchiectasis. Key properties including liposome size, charge and encapsulation efficiency powder size, shape, glass transition temperature (Tg), water…

Abstract In the development of drugs misuse and addiction, references are often made to the study of the API (active principle ingredient) as the main cause, which is certainly true, but there is a tendency to overlook the possible role of certain excipients which may be involved in the…

Utilising three artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) tools, this study explores the prediction of fill level in inclined linear blenders at steady state by mapping a wide range of bulk powder characteristics to processing parameters. Predicting fill levels enables the calculation of…

Agglomerate formulations for dry powder inhalation (DPI) formed with fine particles are versatile means for the highly efficient delivery of budesonide. However, uncontrolled agglomeration induces high deposition in the upper airway, causing local side effects due to high mechanical strength, worse…

Abstract The amount of glidant and lubricant in a tablet formulation is driven by their primary functionalities of enhancing flowability and reducing particle-wall friction. However, their interaction can lead to undesirable outcomes. This study has examined the influence of this interaction on…
