LYCATAB® C Partially Pregelatinized Starch - Pharma

LYCATAB® C partially pregelatinized starch is used in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications as a multifunctional for oral dosage forms. Applications gelatin capsules as a filler direct compression applications as a filler/binder swallowable tablets and hard capsules as a filler/binder/disintegrant Features Combines the disintegration power of starch granules with the high cohesion and good compressibility of pregelatinized starch Due to limited flow properties, often requires the use of additional excipients and production steps such as granulation or partial pregelatinization
