Inactive ingredients or fillers are substances that are used with the active ingredients to basically "fill" a pill, such as making it holds its shape, so it can be molded or to add volume to a product.
They are considered inactive, because they have no medical or nutritional value under the U.S. FDA regulations for such items.
