I could REALLY do with this chart, but cannot work out how to use this site. HELP!! technologically inept!!:punch:
 
I had to jump back and forth in this website.
First, I entered a drug name. Then I found its current manufacturer. If I was lucky, that manufacturer would have extra documentation listing its ingredients. I would then type an ingredient back into the link I gave you and it would give a definition of that ingredient.

An example- One drug listed 'microcrystalline cellulose' in its ingredients. I just entered that in the search line and it would give information.

I came up with the following common fillers:

calcium carbonate
colloidal silicone dioxide
docusate sodium
ferric oxide (yellow)
gelatin
glycerin
lactose
low-substituted hydroxypropylcellulose
methylcellulose
magnesium stearate
magnesium aluminum silicate
methylparaben
microcrystalline cellulose
povidone
propylparaben
saccharin sodium
silicon dioxide
sodium benzoate
sodium starch glycolate
sorbitol
stearic acid
sucrose
talc
titanium dioxide
yellow iron oxide
