InhaLac® 180

InhaLac® 180

The new inhalable lactose InhaLac® 180 with specific particle size distribution has the flow and surface characteristics of a typical milled lactose.
InhaLac® 180 is tailored for dry powder inhalation (DPI) applications. It offers a very popular, widely used and highly uniform particle size distribution (PSD). This provides formulators with an additional tool to tune and optimize the performance of their DPI products.
