  • Method and device for producing pharmaceutical formulations containing an extract
    Patent number: 6468563
    Abstract: A process for producing rapidly disintegrating pharmaceutical formulations containing an extract is provided. The process comprises providing a dry powdered extract and a lubricant, compacting the powdered extract with the lubricant, using between about 0.5-10% lubricant by weight. The compacting is done using a device that yields flakes. The flakes are then crushed into granules, and the granules are compressed with conventional excipients such as bulking agents, glidants, disintegrants, flow regulators and other additives into pharmaceutical formulations.
