Why Precision Matters

The Critical Role of Particle Size Distribution in Tablet Dissolution: Why Precision Matters

In pharmaceuticals, tablet dissolution is not just a process—it’s a determinant of drug efficacy and patient outcomes. A tablet's ability to dissolve effectively impacts its bioavailability, ensuring that the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) reaches the bloodstream in the intended concentration and timeframe.

Central to this process is particle size distribution (PSD)—a parameter that often determines the success of a formulation. But what exactly makes PSD so critical? And how can the right equipment elevate the standards of precision and consistency?

Let’s delve into the science of PSD, its impact on dissolution, and how our advanced cone mills are setting new benchmarks for pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Understanding Particle Size Distribution and Its Impact on Dissolution

Particle size distribution refers to the range of particle sizes within a given sample. It’s not just about achieving uniformity but understanding how the size influences key factors like:

Surface Area: Smaller particles have a larger surface area-to-volume ratio, which enhances solubility and promotes faster dissolution.

Solubility and Bioavailability: A controlled PSD ensures the drug is absorbed at the intended rate, minimizing variability in patient responses.

Flowability and Compressibility Uniform particle sizes contribute to efficient tabletting, reducing production issues and ensuring consistent quality.

By optimizing PSD, manufacturers can enhance the stability, efficacy, and manufacturability of the products—making it a cornerstone of pharmaceutical excellence.
