Application Number:	12/299,997
Patent Claims:	1. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically active ingredient and broken band-like intermediates, said composition is made by the process of de-aerating or decompressing pyrogenically produced silicon dioxide; compressing the pyrogenically produced silicon dioxide by roller compaction to form band-like intermediates having a tamped density (according to DIN EN ISO 787-11) of 185 to 700 g/l; breaking the band-like intermediates to form the broken band-like intermediates; optionally grading or sieving the broken band-like intermediates; and combining the broken band-like intermediates with the pharmaceutically active ingredient. 2. The pharmaceutical composition according to claim 1 in the form of a suspension, emulsion, aerosol, ointment, cream, gel, paste, suppository, stick, powder, topical powder, granular material, tablet, pastille, sugar-coated pill, film-coated tablet, hard gelatin capsule, soft gelatin capsule, extrudate, microcapsule or a microsphere. 3. The pharmaceutical composition according to claim 1, wherein the broken band-like intermediates act as a glidant for pharmaceutical active constituents and/or auxiliary substances. 4. The pharmaceutical composition according to claim 1, and further comprising at least one pharmaceutical auxiliary substance. 5. The pharmaceutical composition according to claim 4, wherein the pharmaceutical auxiliary substance is selected from the group consisting of: antioxidants, binders, emulsifiers, colouring agents, film-forming agents, fillers, gel-forming agents, odoriferous substances, flavouring substances, preservatives, solvents, oils, powder bases, ointment bases, acids and salts for the formulation, replenishment and production of pharmaceutical compositions, lubricants, release agents, suppository bases, suspension stabilisers, sweetening agents, effervescent gases, emollients and sugar substitutes. 6.
