Lactose is the commonly used diluent in the manufacturing of tablets dosage form. However, the poor flowability and compressibility of lactose limit its use as a directly compressible filler binder. In this research work, composite excipient COMBILOSE was developed as a directly compressible filler…

With the advent of continuous direct compression (CDC) process, it becomes increasingly desirable to characterize inherent powder blend heterogeneity at a small batch scale for a robust and CDC-amenable formulation. To accomplish this goal, a near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-based characterization…
