PHARMACEUTICAL PROCESSES- MANUFACTURING OF SOLID DOSAGE FORM

Pharmaceutical process:

flow chart showing processing of Raw material to form a solid Oral Dosage form

All the process comprises Weighing of in-active material and Active pharmaceutical ingredient

First of all raw material is dispensed as per the manufacturing plan. then the raw materials are dispensed as per the dispensing sheet, all raw materials are cross checked and re-weighed by Quality control department and manufacturing process will starts.

The flow diagram also describe the manufacturing process and the process of mixing, drying,granulation, tablet punching, Milling, Coating and sugar coating and finally packing.

Granulation:

It involves the following processes
1) Dry granulation
2) Wet granulation
3) Direct compression
All the above process are carried out to form a tablet from raw material or granules prepared by them.

After granulation different formulations are prepared like tablets,capsules pills etc.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS INVOLVE IN PREPARATION OF TABLET FROM RAW MATERIAL.

Manufacturing process involve the following steps

1.Weighing of ingredients

2.Size reduction of raw material used for manufacturing of dosage form.

3.Mixing of Active drug and raw materials.

4.Granulation process by passing the solid dough mass through sieves.

5.Drying of granules of desired sizes.

6.Mixing with lubricant and other additives.

7. Finally punching of tablets in desired sizes.

8.Pharmaceutical tests for tablets.

9.Coating of tablet if needed.

GRANULATION PROCESS

GRANULATION PROCESS: Granulation process :- It is a process in which the powder particles are made to adhere to form larger, multi particle entities called granules. A dough mass is prepared to form the granules.

CINNAMON AS ANTI MICROBIAL AGENT

Hands are primary mode of transmission of microbes and infections. Through hand hygiene a simple and least expensive means of prevent health care associated infections specially derived from environmental surfaces. The present research was aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of Cinnamon oil extract found that it showed better antimicrobial activity. Also the research was carried out to formulate and evaluate the Hand wash gel containing Cinnamon oil. The anti-microbial activity of the formulated hand wash gel was tested against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacilius subtilis and pseudomonas vulagaris by spread plate techniques and the results obtained were compared with standard antibiotic.

WONDER DRUG FAKE OR REALITY ?

1938: Di-ethyl stilbestrol (DES) was created. DES was the first synthetic estrogen ever synthesized; it was cheap to produce, more potent than natural estrogen, and could be taken orally. In the rush to make and market DES, Eli Lilly became one ofthe drug's major manufacturers. In America alone there were 267 drug companies that made and distributed DES and other similar synthetic estrogen because it was un-patented and easily produced.No controlled studies were ever conducted by the drug companies to determine the effectiveness or safety of DES for use during pregnancy, even after some scientists started questioning its efficacy in the 19505. As early as 1953, research revealed that DES did not work that DES actually brought about higher rates of premature birth and infant mortality yet DES continued to be prescribed to pregnant women for decades.
