About excipients
Excipients play a key role in formulating safe, effective and high-quality drugs. Tereos help customers to tackle the specific challenges linked to each type of finished dosage form: our high purity excipients provide complementary functional and sensory benefits in a wide array of applications.
In oral solid dosage forms such as tablets, granules or powder mixes, sucrose, starch, maltodextrins, powder polyols and dextrose (glucose monohydrate) have a positive effect on the end products’ taste profile, visual aspect and texture.
In oral liquid dosage forms such as syrups, suspensions and solutions, sucrose, glucose syrups and liquid polyols enable the formulation of full–sugar and sugar-free products. These excipients also help modulate the sweetness profile and viscosity while ensuring an even distribution of the active pharmaceutical ingredients.
Sucrose, liquid and powder polyols also play a key technological and sensory role in medicated confectionery such as hard-biled candies, pastilles and chewing– gums.
