Excipients are a crucial component of the pharmaceutical product formulation, and the industry is constantly having to adapt to changes in demand and technology innovations

As pharmaceutical production moves from batch-wise to continuous manufacturing, individual processing steps, such as blending of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) with excipients, have to be re-designed to continuous operations.

Whilst the cost and quality benefits of CM are well documented, successful implementation relies on an in-depth understanding of how raw materials and their mixtures – including excipients – behave in continuous processes. This whitepaper will outline some of the key learnings from DFE Pharma’s excipients in CM processes variability experiments, before setting out DFE Pharma’s Stretch Batch Approach and how it can work in practice.
Ultimately, it will demonstrate why DFE Pharma is fast becoming the pharma industry’s preferred global partner in the robust development of continuous tablet manufacturing processes.

DFE Pharma's Norten Hardenberg plant, located in Germany, is dedicated to the production of anhydrous lactose. An investment for the future, featuring a new state-of-the-art production line, like for like process, high-end control to ensure batch homogeneity.
