Acacia

Acacia is mainly used in oral and topical pharmaceutical formulations as a suspending and emulsifying agent, often in combination with tragacanth. It is also used in the preparation of pastilles and lozenges, and as a tablet binder, although if used incautiously it can produce tablets with a prolonged disintegration time. Acacia has also been evaluated as a bioadhesive and has been used in novel tablet formulations and modified release tablets. Acacia is also used in cosmetics, confectionery, food products, and spray-dried flavors.
