Mannitol is a sugar alcohol commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry for various purposes. It is a white, crystalline powder with a sweet taste and is known for its ability to act as an osmotic diuretic. Mannitol finds applications in pharmaceuticals due to its unique properties, including solubility, stability, and low toxicity.

Using a Material Library to Understand the Change of Tabletability by High Shear Wet Granulation
Understanding the tabletability change of materials after granulation is critical for the formulation and process design in tablet development. In this paper, a material library consisting of 30 pharmaceutical materials was used to summarize the pattern of change of tabletability during high shear…

Design and Optimization of Lornoxicam Dispersible Tablets Using Quality by Design (QbD) Approach
The present study aims to design and optimize the lornoxicam dispersible tablet (LXDT) formulation using the Quality by design (QbD) approach. A randomized Box–Behnken experimental design was used to characterize the effect of the critical factors, such as filler (MCC/Mannitol) ratio, mixing time,…

Nontoxic Natural Polymeric Particle Vehicles Derived from Hyaluronic Acid and Mannitol as Mitomycin…
Hyaluronic acid/mannitol (HA/MN)-based particles were designed as mitomycin c (MMC) delivery vehicles through the crosslinking of 1:0, 3:1, 1:3, and 0:1 mole ratios of HA/MN to investigate their potential use in bladder cancer therapy. The HA/MN-MMC particles prepared by the microemulsion…

Processing of Lipid Nanodispersions into Solid Powders by Spray Drying
Spray drying is a promising technology for drying lipid nanodispersions. These formulations can serve as carrier systems for poorly water-soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) that are loaded into the lipid matrix to improve their bioavailability. Once the API-loaded nanocarriers have…

Compression Density as an Alternative to Identify an Optimal Moisture Content for High Shear Wet…
Pellet production is a multi-step manufacturing process comprising granulation, extrusion and spheronisation. The first step represents a critical control point, since the quality of the granule mass highly influences subsequent process steps and, consequently, the quality of final pellets. The most…

Oral Disintegrating Tablets – see the solution landscape
Introduction
Oral disintegrating tablets (ODTs) are patient-centric drug delivery systems (for example, for pediatrics, geriatrics, and psychiatric patients with dysphagia) designed to increase patient compliance. ODTs are preferred to classic dosage forms (swallowable / chewable / suckable…
