摘要:
The invention relates to the process for producing a novel multi-purpose agglomerated cellulosic excipient. This excipient replaces many ingredients in the production of tablets due to the fact that it functions as a diluent, a disintegrating agent and an agglutinant, all in the same material. This material is therefore ideal for producing tablets in a dry process such as direct compression and dry granulation, saving production times and costs, especially in humidity- and heat-sensitive drugs. The tablets produced using said excipient disintegrate rapidly by explosion when they come into contact with water. In addition, said excipient can be used to produce loose and compact make-up powders due to its self-agglutinating and sensory properties on the skin, and also functions as a dispersant agent that can be used in the production of semisolid products. It can further be used to produce granules and beads or as a diluent in formulations of hard gelatin capsules, and since it is a source of high fibre, it is a good replacement for insoluble dietary fibre.
