Abstract

Soy polysaccharides, which are substantially high molecular weight cell wall structural components of soybean cotyledons, are mixed with a therapeutically-active substance and the mixture is made into a tablet by conventional means such as wet or dry granulation or direct compression procedures. The tablets obtained by this method have sufficient hardness and highly beneficial disintegration properties.
