Acacia gum, a versatile excipient
Acacia makes its way into capsules, tablets, pills and even denture adhesives.
The main applications include powder agglomeration thanks to its cohesive qualities, suspension in liquid formulations and tablet coating. Acacia gum is a safe, natural excipient that can be used to coat, glaze, film and agglomerate tablets. It can also encase active substances.
Acacia is the main ingredient in many chest pastilles and throat gums, and in some countries, it is used as a supplement.
Other pharmaceutical applications include encapsulating micro-granules and thickening and texturing syrups and lotions. The gum’s natural adhesive and non-cariogenic properties are also very useful in denture adhesives.
Karaya gum, widely used as a bulk laxative.
Pharmaceutical applications of karaya gum have been extensively studied. The main current application is as an active agent in bulk laxatives. As such, karaya gum is considered an active substance in medications for intestinal comfort and regulating intestinal transit (in granules).
Karaya is used in gastric dressings and medications that deliver active substances in the gastro-intestinal tract.
Additional properties that are useful when formulating medication include:
- capacity to retain moisture
- as an adhesive compound for colostomy rings and dental adhesives
- bulking, thickening and viscosity control agent
These different applications highlight the versatility and importance of karaya gum in pharmaceutical industry, where it is valued as a safe, natural ingredient with multifunctional properties.
