The paper evaluates and compares the strength and disintegration time of tablets and the energy profile of compression in dependence on compression force in the co-processed dry binders LubriToseTM SD and LubriToseTM AN. These substances are further compared in these parameters with the physical mixtures of the pertinent lactoses with various lubricants in a concentration of 4 %. The lubricants employed included glycerol monostearate, magnesium stearate, Poloxamer 407, and sodium stearyl fumarate.
