TLDR The tablets are easy to make, look good, work well, and are ready for mass production.
The study aimed to prepare Finasteride Dispersible Tablets and evaluate their in vitro dissolution characteristics. By focusing on disintegration time and using an orthogonal design, the researchers optimized the tablet formulation to determine the best excipient amounts. The resulting tablets disintegrated quickly, dispersed well, and exhibited a high dissolution speed. The conclusion was that the tablets had a pleasing appearance, stable quality, a reasonable formulation, and a straightforward production process, making them suitable for industrial production.
