F-MELT - ODT made simpler
F-MELT®, developed by Fuji Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. in Japan, is a directly compressible excipient system for fast Oral Disintegrating Tablets (ODTs).
F-MELT®, a free-flowing granular powder, is produced by co-spray-drying a proprietary formulation of carbohydrates, disintegrants, and inorganic ingredients. Consisting of porous spherical particles, F-MELT® exhibits excellent tabletting properties and facilitates rapid water-penetration for a fast disintegration time.
