EMDEX®: The Multi-Functional Excipient for Multiple Formulations
EMDEX® is a directly compressible, 100% water soluble, and lactose-free tablet binder. It is composed of a unique combination of glucose monohydrate and different polysaccharides derived from starch. When used in direct compression, EMDEX® shows superior flow, compaction, and tablet robustness. EMDEX® has a sweet taste, but is not as sweet as sucrose, making it ideal for semi-sweet formulations.
EMDEX® offers:
– Superior flow, compaction, and tablet robustness in direct compression
– 100% water soluble
– Easy handling – does not stick to punches
– Embossing/debossing capabilities
– Lactose-free
– NF compendia, eliminating regulatory hurdles
