The importance of excipients in tablets compounding
Tablets are the most widely used dosage form globally due to their convenience, stability, accuracy, and versatility. Their successful development relies on the careful selection and optimization of excipients, which influence not only the manufacturability of the tablets but also their bioavailability, release kinetics, mechanical resistance, disintegration, organoleptic characteristics, and patient adherence. In the context of personalized medicine and pharmaceutical compounding, the formulation process must be flexible to accommodate a wide range of APIs with differing physicochemical properties. In response to the demand for reliable, versatile, and scientifically engineered tablet excipients, Fagron developed the DiluTab line, tailored for the specific needs of direct compression tablet compounding.
