Production challenges of tablets containing lipid excipients: Case study using cannabidiol as drug…
The aims of this study were, firstly, to select an optimal lipid solid dispersion of cannabidiol among different lipid excipients (Gelucire® 50/13, 48/16, 44/14 and Labrasol®) and inorganic carriers (colloidal silica, Syloid® XDP and Neusilin® US2) through a screening plan. The enhancement of…

Clean label ingredients for solid oral dosage forms
In general, clean label is a consumer driven movement, demanding a return to real food and transparency through authenticity. For nutritional supplements, this means that they should contain natural, familiar, simple ingredients that are easy to recognize, understand and pronounce.
Therefore, the…

Material optimization for the development of delayed release formulation using computational tools
The present study involves designing a delayed-release tablet formulation of a drug belonging to BCS class-III further chemically classified as bisphosphonate to improve bioavailability. The typical approach to drug design experimentation calls for only one variable to be altered at a time, with all…

Compression Modulus and Apparent Density of Polymeric Excipients during Compression—Impact on…
The present study focuses on the compaction behavior of polymeric excipients during compression in comparison to nonpolymeric excipients and its consequences on commonly used Heckel analysis. Compression analysis at compaction pressures (CPs) from 50 to 500 MPa was performed using a compaction…

Design-of-experiment approach to quantify the effect of nano-sized silica on tableting properties of…
There are challenges to implementing high-speed direct compression tableting for poor flow, low-density cohesive powder. Thus, excipients with adequate flowability and bulk density are desired to facilitate this process. As a major novelty, the effect of nano-sized silica (Aerosil 200®) on the…

100% visual inspection of tablets produced with continuous direct compression and coating
Visual appearance of tablets is an important property for patients. Since the visual appearance is most strongly influenced by the applied coating, this necessitates a high level of process control and homogeneity in the coating process. In recent years, a number of tablet coaters have been…
