Impact testing as a new approach to determine mechanical strength of pharmaceutical tablets
Abstract
One of the most common standardised testing of tablet strength in the pharmaceutical industry is the tablet breaking force, which records data related to diametrical compression. This method does not account for a rapid transfer of energy such as free-falling tablets hitting a solid…

Taste Masking of Dexketoprofen Trometamol Orally Disintegrating Granules by High-Shear Coating with…
Abstract
Orally disintegrating granules (ODGs) are a pharmaceutical form commonly used for the administration of NSAIDs because of their easy assumption and fast dispersion. The development of ODGs is not easy for drugs like dexketoprofen trometamol (DXKT), which have a bitter and burning taste. In…
