while formulation of Gliclazide floating tablets why we are using direct cmpression technique why ..

Answer / Santosh Kumar Bhagat

Direct compression is used in the formulation of Gliclazide floating tablets because this method ensures a high content of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the final product without the need for additional steps such as wet granulation, which could decrease the API content. In wet granulation, excipients are mixed with water or other solvents before adding the API. The resulting slurry is then dried and compressed into tablets. However, this method may require more processing time, increased cost, and potentially lower drug stability compared to direct compression.

Anyone have any idea when to conduct Uniformity of Weight (UOW) and when need to conduct Uniformity of Dosage Units (UOD) or when need both? I read BP it only said if average weight < or = 0.04g then just conduct UOD, no need UOW. Under UOD section, it doesnt say when need to conduct UOD but just said UOD got two type, one is Mass Variation (MV), another is Content Uniformity (CU) and under what conditions to conduct them. For USP, no UOW section, only got UOD section.
