Taste masking study of cocoa butter fast melt tablet (FMT) formulations containing memantine hydrochloride
Fast Melt Tablet (FMT) is a newer type of orally disintegrating tablet using the advantage of cocoa butter that melts at body temperature to achieve fast melting effect when the tablet is placed in oral cavity. However, oral disintegrating dosage form must have good palatability so that patients can...

The objective of this study is to taste mask a previously developed FMT containing memantine hydrochloride using artificial sweetener namely aspartame and acesulfame K and conduct a palatability study.

Fast Melt Tablet (FMT) is a newer type of orally disintegrating tablet using the advantage of cocoa butter that melts at body temperature to achieve fast melting effect when the tablet is placed in oral cavity.

The objective of this study is to taste mask a previously developed FMT containing memantine hydrochloride using artificial sweetener namely aspartame and acesulfame K and conduct a palatability study. Six formulations were developed and each sweetener was used at three level (10mg, 20mg and 30mg) to taste mask memantine hydrochloride in FMT.
