Spherical agglomeration of mefenamic acid and nabumetone to improve micromeritics and solubility: a technical note.

Spherical agglomeration techniques were developed for improving the flow and compressibility characteristics of microcrystalline mefenamic acid and nabumetone. The process involved agglomerating microcrystals using agglomerating solvents. Temperature and speed of agitation were optimized to obtain spherical agglomerates in a desired range, which was found to be essential to enhance compressibility.
