As a global leading pharmaceutical excipient partner, IFF Pharma Solutions will highlight some of its latest innovations, including:
Oral Disintegrating Tablet (ODT) Solutions
- The ODT market is expanding rapidly, requiring tablets that dissolve quickly for easy administration to children and elderly patients. Incorporating super disintegrants into ODT formulations is essential, as these agents enhance dissolution speed and improve patient compliance. Ac-Di-Sol®, a leading super disintegrant, offers equivalent disintegration efficacy to polyvinylpolypyrrolidone (PVPP).
Controlled Release (C) Portfolio
- METHOCEL™ Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC): Enables consistent and controlled delivery of medication, enhancing therapeutic efficacy and patient compliance through customizable HPMC.
- ETHOCEL™ Ethylcellulose: Water-resistant barrier coatings for targeted drug delivery and taste masking in modified-release tablets.
- POLYOX™ Polyethylene Oxide: High-swell matrices for osmotic delivery and abuse-deterrent systems, supporting osmotic pump technology and modified-release matrix formulations.
Low-Nitrite Solutions
- As a low-nitrite microcrystalline cellulose solution, Avicel® PH LN reduces nitrosamine formation risks in oral solid dosages, ensuring compliance with Japan's stringent regulatory standards.
- IFF Pharma Solutions expands its low-nitrite excipient portfolio by introducing Low Nitrite METHOCEL™, tailored to help mitigate the risk of nitrosamine formation in drugs.
