Fast-Melt Tablets: A New Era On Brand-New Drug Delivery System And Its Technology

The predominant method of medicine delivery is still oral. Novel technologies with greater performance, patient compliance, and enhanced quality have evolved in the recent past. Fast-melt tablets are specifically made to dissolve in saliva very quickly within a few seconds when placed on the tongue without the need for water. Super disintegrants are added to FMT formulations to speed up a tablet's breakdown in the mouth. The technology utilized in the production of fast-melt tablets (FMTs) can be classified as either proprietary or conventional. Conventional methods such as freeze drying, tablet moulding, sublimation, spray drying, and others, as well as proprietary methods like Zydis, Orasolv, Durasolv, Wowtab, and Flashdose, are crucial. Important components utilized in the formulation of FMTs should enable the medicine to release quickly, leading to a faster rate of dissolution. The purpose of this review is to offer insightful information to scientists and industry experts working on the creation of fast-melt tablets (FMTs).
