Abstract

Background: SeDeM (Sediment Delivery Model) expert system is a preformulation tool employed for evaluating direct compression suitability of various excipients. SeDeM is a 12 parameters derived diagram and SeDeM-ODT (Sediment Delivery Model-Orodispersible tablets) is a 15 parameters derived diagram that can be used as a research tool for reducing the product development time. The best possible excipients for a specified pharmaceutical active ingredient could be screened for direct compression suitability.

Objective: SeDeM expert system has been successfully used and implemented for characterizing galenic properties of pharmaceutical excipients, direct compression suitability of excipients, development of ODT formulations, development of sustained-release formulations, and development of tablets of taste-masked drugs.

Conclusion: In the present review paper, the development and applications of SeDeM and SeDeMODT systems have been discussed in detail.

Keywords: SeDeM, SeDeM-ODT, direct compression, excipients, tablets, application.
