Revolutionizing oral bioavailability: powdered lipid surfactants for tablets and capsules

  • Bioavailability enhancement

Lipid-based excipients are widely recognized to improve API bioavailability by increasing solubility and permeability. Commonly liquid or waxy, they were primarily formulated in liquid dosage forms, whereas their use in oral solid dosage forms remained sporadic. Formulators often perceived lipid-based excipients as difficult to incorporate in their oral solid dosage forms manufacturing processes. Recent developments at Gattefossé opened the path for new powder surfactants, directly processable in tablets or hard capsules.

When lipids go solid: process strategies to enhance bioavailability in oral dosage forms

  • Bioavailability enhancement

Lipid excipients are known to improve the bioavailability of APIs by increasing their solubility and permeability. Generally liquid at room temperature, they are primarily formulated in liquid forms. Solid oral dosage forms (OSDs), such as tablets, can also benefit from the advantages of lipid excipients. This webinar highlights various processes for incorporating lipid excipients into tablets or powders intended for oral administration.
