Delves into all aspects of R&D and manufacturing of all oral solid dose (OSD) forms. Tracks industry trends. Relays latest applied research relevant to OSDs. Provides “how to” information for the latest techniques in formulation/excipients, tablet manufacturing, capsule filling and other aspects of the process—including logistics like supply-chain management.
Many formulation challenges such as poor flow, segregation, capping and weak tablets can be traced to suboptimal micromeritics properties.
