Overcome Challenges of Elastic Deformation with the Right Excipient – Case Study With…
Abstract
Developing a medicine in which the active ingredient has elastic deformation is always challenging, as elastic forces affect the compression capacity of the formulation, resulting in tablets with capping, low tablet breaking force and high friability. Finding an ideal formulation with…

A strategy to optimize precompression pressure for tablet manufacturing based on in-die elastic…
A precompression pressure optimization strategy using in-die elastic recovery was developed to effectively address tablet lamination caused by air entrapment. This strategy involves exacerbating the air entrapment issue using high tableting speeds and main compaction pressures and collecting in-die…

Fabrication of a Controlled-Release Core-Shell Floating Tablet of Ketamine Hydrochloride Using a 3D…
In this study, a novel floating, controlled-release and core-shell oral tablet of ketamine hydrochloride (HCl) was produced using a dual extrusion by 3D printing method. A mixture of Soluplus® and Eudragit® RS-PO was extruded by a hot-melt extrusion (HME) nozzle at 150–160 °C to fabricate the tablet…

Influence of Nozzle Geometry and Scale-Up on Oil Droplet Breakup in the Atomization Step during…
Spray drying of oil-in-water emulsions is a widespread encapsulation technique. The oil droplet size (ODS) significantly impacts encapsulation efficiency and other powder properties. The ODS is commonly set to a specific value during homogenization, assuming that it remains unchanged throughout the…

Co-release of paclitaxel and encequidar from amorphous solid dispersions increase oral paclitaxel…
The oral bioavailability of paclitaxel is limited due to low solubility and high affinity for the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux transporter. Here we hypothesized that maximizing the intestinal paclitaxel levels through apparent solubility enhancement and controlling the simultaneous release of both…

Studying the API Distribution of Controlled Release Formulations Produced via Continuous Twin-Screw…
Abstract
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) is a preferred hydrophilic matrix former for controlled release formulations produced through continuous twin-screw wet granulation. However, a non-homogeneous API distribution over sieve fractions with underdosing in the fines fraction (<150 µm) was…

Optimization of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) and Carbopol 940 in Clindamycin HCl Ethosomal…
Clindamycin HCl has anti-acne properties because it can inhibit the growth of Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) bacteria. However, the bioavailability of clindamycin HCl is less than 13% of the given dose, so it needs to be developed in the form of ethosomes to increase its bioavailability. This…
