description | This study demonstrated the implementation of a liquisolid technique to formulate directly compressible orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs). Cannabidiol (CBD), a hydrophobic cannabinoid, was prepared as a liquisolid powder using microcrystalline cellulose–colloidal silicon dioxide as a carrier–coating material. Different liquid vehicles differing in their volatility, hydrophilicity, and viscosity were investigated. Each of the CBD–ODTs comprised CBD liquisolid powder (10 mg CBD), superdisintegrant, flavors, lubricant, and filler. The physical mixture (PM) ODT was prepared as a control. Ethanol-based ODTs (CBD–EtOH–ODTs) had comparable tablet properties and stability to CBD–PM–ODTs. ODTs with nonvolatile-vehicle-based liquisolid powder had lower friability but longer disintegration times as compared with CBD–PM–ODTs and CBD–EtOH–ODTs. Compression pressure influenced the thickness, hardness, friability, and disintegration of the ODTs. With a suitable compression pressure to yield 31-N-hardness-ODTs and superdisintegrant (4–8%), CBD–ODTs passed the friability test and promptly disintegrated (≤25 s). Times to dissolve 50% of CBD–PM–ODTs, CBD–EtOH–ODTs, and nonvolatile-vehicle-based CBD–ODTs were 10.1 ± 0.7, 3.8 ± 0.2, and 4.2 ± 0.4–5.0 ± 0.1 min, respectively. CBD–EtOH–ODTs exhibited the highest dissolution efficiency of 93.5 ± 2.6%. Long-term and accelerated storage indicated excellent stability in terms of tablet properties and dissolution. Nonvolatile-vehicle-based CBD–ODTs exhibited a higher percentage of remaining CBD. This study provides useful basic information for the development of ODT formulations using a liquisolid technique application. |
