Liquisolid systems and methods of preparing same

摘要

Liquisolid systems are acceptably flowing and compressible powdered forms of liquid medications. According to the concept of liquisolid systems, liduid lipophilic drugs, or water-insoluble solid drugs dissolved in suitable non-volatile solvents, may be converted into free-flowing and readily compressible powders by a simple admixture with selected powder excipients referred to as the carrier and coating materials. Various grades of microcrystalline or amorphous cellulose may be used as carriers, whereas very fine particle size silica powders may be used as coating materials.
