Disintegrants and superdisintegrant excipients are essential components used in the pharmaceutical industry to enhance the dissolution and bioavailability of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). These excipients facilitate the disintegration and rapid breakup of tablets or capsules, which ultimately increases their rate of absorption in the body.

Concept of Orodispersible or Mucoadhesive “Tandem Films” and Their Pharmaceutical Realization
Orodispersible or mucoadhesive films as a patient-oriented dosage form for low-dosed drugs are usually produced using solvent casting. This paper presents a modification of the solvent casting technique that aimed to divide oral films into two or more compartments.
The proposed objectives and…

Tablet Disintegration and Dispersion under In Vivo-like Hydrodynamic Conditions
Disintegration and dispersion are functional properties of tablets relevant for the desired API release. The standard disintegration test (SDT) described in different pharmacopoeias provides only limited information on these complex processes. It is considered not to be comparable to the biorelevant…
