In vitro characterization and mouthfeel study of functionalized calcium carbonate in orally disintegrating tablets

Orally disintegrating tablets (ODT) are comfortable and safe drug delivery methods beneficial for all age groups of patients. ODTs are characterized by fast disintegration, high physical stability, taste masking and acceptable mouthfeel. In this work, the applicability of Functionalized Calcium Carbonate (FCC) to formulate ODTs with enhanced mouthfeel was elaborated and tested for acceptability on twenty healthy volunteers, using a 10-step...
