GRANULAR MATERIAL FOR DOSAGE FORMS

摘要

A granular material which has a mean particle diameter of 150 to 800 micrometers; and an unsettled bulk density of 0.1 to 0.35 g/cm3 and/or a compactibility which results in a compact with a tensile strength of at least 1.7 MPa when the granular material is subjected to a compaction pressure of 266 MPa; and wherein the main component of the granular material is a cellulose derivative or an alkylene oxide homo- or copolymer or a blend thereof is useful for preparing dosage forms with a controlled release profile.
