Factors affecting the characteristics of rapidly disintegrating tablets in the mouth prepared by the crystalline transition of amorphous sucrose.

The aim of this study is to investigate the factors affecting the characteristics of rapidly disintegrating tablets containing an amorphous ingredient prepared by crystalline transition method (CTM) under various storage conditions. Effect of storage conditions and formulating ratio of amorphous sucrose on the characteristic changes (tensile strength, porosity, and disintegration time) of the rapidly disintegrating tablets was studied. The storage conditions of different temperature and humidity affected the rate of crystalline transition and the increase in the tablet tensile strength.
