Solid dosage forms

Solid dosage forms, such as tablets, capsules and powders, are used widely as methods of administering medication. This is due largely to their ease of manufacturing, the convenience for the consumer and ensuring dosage uniformity. 

Excipients are crucial components of solid dosage forms, serving as inert substances alongside active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). These non-medicinal ingredients contribute to the physical integrity, stability, and bioavailability of the final pharmaceutical product.

Often the solution for formulation challenges, excipients solve such issues as API instability, poor flow properties, or taste masking.

Commonly used excipients in solid formulations are fillers, disintegrants, binders, glidants, solubilizers, lubricants, antiadherents, preservatives, coating agents, taste maskers, colors and buffering agents.
