A comprehensive review of immediate dissolving formulations: current state and future prospects

International Journal of Biology Pharmacy and Allied Sciences, 2025

Abstract

Immediate Dissolving Formulations (IDFs) have emerged as a promising drug delivery system that addresses patient convenience and compliance issues associated with conventional dosage forms.This review aims to provide an in-depth analysis of IDFs, highlighting their formulation strategies, challenges, and recent developments.IDFs represent a novel approach to drug delivery, offering rapid and convenient administration of pharmaceutical compounds.This abstract provides an overview of the key characteristics and applications of IDFs.IDFs are innovative dosage forms designed to dissolve or disintegrate quickly upon contact with saliva or other aqueous media, releasing the active drug for absorption in the oral cavity.This rapid dissolution eliminates the need for swallowing, making IDFs particularly advantageous for patients with swallowing difficulties, pediatric populations, and individuals requiring fast onset
