In this research we study the influence of two lubricants-Magnesium Stearate and Pruv--on the tablets elaboration of Cimetidine, Ranitidine, Famotidine and Pirenzepine by direct compression. The presence of 0.5% of lubricants improved the flow of all the formulations, but especially the Famotidine's formulation. The formulations with Magnesium Stearate had the worst results in tests of friability and tensile strength. All tablets with drugs and Pruv had high data in indentation hardness. The tablets of Cimetidine, Famotidine and Pirenzepine with Magnesium Stearate had less time of disintegration.
