On the use of Triacetin in tablets
The current study of Triacetin in tablets involves various matters. Triacetin has its uses in the manufacture, properties, and efficacy of tablets.
Looking at its manufacture, Triacetin can be used as one of the auxiliary materials, which can be matched with various raw materials to affect the molding of tablets. Or help powder agglomeration, so that when pressed into tablets, the structure is compact and not easy to break. The amount of its dosage is related to the texture of the tablet. If the amount is appropriate, the tablet body is uniform and the appearance is smooth.
In terms of tablet properties, Triacetin can affect its solubility. An appropriate amount of Triacetin is stored in tablets, which can make the tablet dissolve at an appropriate rate in a specific medium. In oral tablets, the dissolution of the drug in the gastrointestinal fluid can be regulated to ensure the effective absorption of the drug. If there is too much Triacetin, the tablet may dissolve too quickly, causing the drug to be released in large quantities in an instant, or there may be adverse reactions; if there is too little, the dissolution will be delayed, and the drug effect will be slow, which is not appropriate.
As for the efficacy, Triacetin is used in tablets or as a plasticizer to enhance the flexibility of the tablet, reduce its brittleness, and prevent cracking during transportation and storage. And it may protect the stability of the drug, avoid the deterioration of the drug due to environmental factors such as humidity and temperature, and ensure the long-term stability of the tablet.
Therefore, Triacetin is a tablet, although it is small and functional, and the quality and efficacy of the tablet are all related to the production, characteristics and efficacy of the tablet.
