This practically limits the use of orally administered bulk powders to antacids, dietary supplements, laxatives, and a few analgesics. Many bulk powders are used topically.
What are the advantages of bulk powders?
- There is a wide choice of ingredients, and the dose can easily be achieved for patient administration.
- Powders have better physicochemical stability and longer shelf life compared to liquid dosage forms.
