Laboratory Industrial Use

Lactose is widely used as a filler or diluent for tablets and capsules, and sometimes in freeze-dried products and baby food formulas. Lactose is also used as a diluent in powder inhalers. Other applications include: as a carrier/diluent in inhalants and lyophilized formulations. Lactose is added to the lyophilization solution to increase bulk and aid in the formation of lyophilized lumps. Lactose is also mixed with sucrose in a ratio of approximately 1:3 and used as a coating solution. Generally speaking, which grade of lactose to choose depends on the pharmaceutical dosage form being developed. Lactose for direct compression is often used for tablets with a small drug content, which can save the granulation process.
