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.
Pharma Excipients
Disintegrant / Superdisintergrant
Preparation of Bilayer ODTs with Superior Interfacial Strength Using GRANFILLER-D
In recent years, multilayer tablets have drawn attention as dosage form that enable the production of combination drugs with API stability and precisely controlled dissolution rates, and many studies on such tablets have been reported. However, there are still few reports on the application of…

Characterization and comparison of deferasirox fast disintegrating tablets prepared by direct…
The aim of this study was to develop direct compressed and lyophilized fast disintegrating/dissolving tablets (FDTs) that enhanced disintegration and dissolution of deferasirox, a drug with poor solubility and bioavailability. Although there are conventional oral tablets and tablets for oral…

Channelled tablets: An innovative approach to accelerating drug release from 3D printed tablets
Conventional immediate release dosage forms involve compressing the powder with a disintegrating agent that enables rapid disintegration and dissolution upon oral ingestion. Among 3D printing technologies, the fused deposition modelling (FDM) 3D printing technique has a considerable potential for…

Improved Dissolution and Pharmacokinetics of Abiraterone through KinetiSol® Enabled Amorphous Solid…
Abiraterone is a poorly water-soluble drug. It has a high melting point and limited solubility in organic solvents, making it difficult to formulate as an amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) with conventional technologies. KinetiSol® is a high-energy, fusion-based, solvent-free technology that can…

Oral tablet formulations containing cyclodextrin complexes of poorly water soluble cefdinir to…
Cefdinir (CFD) is an oral cephalosporin antibiotic commonly used in the treatment of community-acquired infections. The oral bioavailability of CFD is limited due to its poor aqueous solubility. Cyclodextrins (CyDs) and their chemically modified derivatives are used in the pharmaceutical field to…

Development and Evaluation of Mucoadhesive Buccal Dosage Forms of Lidocaine Hydrochloride
Intraoral lidocaine formulations are applied in children and adults for pain relief. The potential risks associated with orally administered lidocaine due to accidental ingestions were highlighted in a warning letter by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This increases the urgency for a need…

Physical modification of Thai rice starch and its application as orodispersible film former
The objective of this study was to investigate the application of the physically modified rice starch (MRS) produced by alcoholic-alkaline (MRS-AA) and planetary ball-milling (MRS-BM) methods as an ODF film former. Rice starch was isolated from Thai rice grain. XRD and ATR-FTIR results confirmed…

Development and evaluation of TPGS/PVA-based nanosuspension for enhancing dissolution and oral…
In this study, we developed ticagrelor-dispersed nanosuspension (TCG-NSP) to enhance the dissolution and oral bioavailability of ticagrelor (TCG) through a statistical design approach. TCG, a reversible P2Y12 receptor antagonist, is classified as a biopharmaceutics classification system (BCS) class…
