Tablets are one of the most important compressible solid dosage forms. The compressed tablet is the most popular dosage form in use today. About two-thirds of all prescriptions are dispensed as solid dosage forms, and half of these are compressed tablets.
A tablet can be formulated to deliver an accurate dosage to a specific site; it is usually taken orally, but can be administered sublingually, buccally, rectally or intravaginally.
Especially, designing, developing and optimizing of manufacturing process of tablet at a high quality play an essential role in pharmaceutical dosage form development process. To understand this manufacturing processes provides us rational and scientific view to solve manufacturing problems, increase our productivity and support our commercial aims.
Design, development and optimization of pharmaceutical process and manufacturing strategies are very important for the development of a pharmaceutical dosage forms in the pharmaceutical industry.
This course will help you to understand pharmaceutical tablet manufacturing process with basic concepts of technical and practical applications of pharmaceutical manufacturing in the research and development phase and commercial manufacturing period.
