Application note: Disintegration property of ODTs with co-processed excipients

Posted: 1 September 2020 | | No comments yet

Performance of orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs) with GRANFILLER-D was investigated by the real-time X-ray observation of water penetration into ODTs.

Orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs) have gotten attention as they improve medication adherence for patients who have issues in swallowing, such as geriatric and pediatric patients. Co-processed excipients are available as a time-saving tool for manufacturers to formulate ODTs as they consist of several excipients. In this study, the performance of the co-processed excipient GRANFILLER-D was investigated by the real-time observation of water penetration into ODTs utilizing a synchrotron radiation X-ray.
