Fast dissolving tablet and its production

TLDR
In this article, a method of producing a fast dissolving tablet comprising compression-molding a composition comprising an active ingredient, a carbohydrate and a barely sufficient amount of water to moisten the surface of particles of said carbohydrate into a tablet form and obtainable by the method.
Abstract
A method of producing a fast dissolving tablet comprising compression-molding a composition comprising an active ingredient, a carbohydrate and a barely sufficient amount of water to moisten the surface of particles of said carbohydrate into a tablet form and a fast dissolving tablet obtainable by the method. The active ingredient may for example be a vitamin, a gastrointestinal function conditioning agent or an antipyretic-analgesic-antiinflammatory agent. The carbohydrate includes sugar, starch sugars, lactose, honey, sugar alcohols and tetroses. The amount of water to be added is about 0.3 to 10% by weight. The above fast dissolving tablet has a porous structure with excellent disintegratability and solubility as well as adequate strength.

Rapidly dissolving robust dosage form

TL;DR: The tablet is created from an active ingredient mixed into a matrix of a non-direct compression filler and a relatively high lubricant content, and it dissolves rapidly in the mouth of the patient with a minimum of grit as discussed by the authors.

Fast-Melting Tablets: Developments and Technologies

Luca Dobetti
TL;DR: Fast-dispersing formulations, commonly called fast-melting tablets (FMTs), also offer advantages over other dosage forms such as effervescent tablets, extemporary suspensions, chewing gum, or chewable tablets, which are commonly used to enhance patient compliance.

Quick-liquifying, chewable tablet

TL;DR: In this article, a tablet has a harder outer shell which inhibits penetration of liquid into the interior of the tablet, and a softer interior which quickly liquifies when the tablet and shell are broken into pieces and contacted by the liquid.

Intrabuccally disintegrating preparation and production thereof

TL;DR: A solid preparation soluble in the buccal cavity, which is composed of a sugar comprising lactose and/or manitol and 1-12 w/w%, based on the sugar, of agar and an active ingredient, has a density of 400-1,000 mg/ml and such a strength as to withstand the handling in the manufacture thereof as discussed by the authors.
Patent

Fast dissolving dosage forms

TL;DR: A pharmaceutical dosage form is provided which disintegrates rapidly in water having an open matrix network structure comprised of mannitol and a natural gum and which can be used particularly for oral administration to pediatric and geriatric patients as discussed by the authors.

Preparation of pharmaceutical and other matrix systems by solid-state dissolution

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for preparing pharmaceutical and other matrix systems that comprises solidifying a matrix composition dissolved or dispersed in a first solvent and subsequently contacting the solidified matrix with a second solvent that is substantially miscible with the first solvent at a temperature lower than the solidification point of the first one, the matrix components being substantially insoluble in the second solvent.
