Microlose offers excellent compressibility and good powder flow, with a balanced compaction profile that results in tablets with high hardness, low friability, and reliable disintegration, making it well suited for immediate release oral solid dosage forms.
The Microlose coprocessed excipient can also support modified release profiles. Lactose Monohydrate excipient promotes rapid dissolution for immediate release, while the Microcrystalline Cellulose excipient contributes to matrix formation for sustained drug release. This combination of the two pharmaceutical excipients allows flexible control over release behavior within a single excipient system.
