Avinash Dubey*, Shubham and Saurabh Shukla

ABSTRACT

Medicines are not only a science; it is also an art. It does not consist ofcompounding pills and plasters; it deals with the very processes of life,which must be understood before they may be guided. Pharmaceuticaloral solid dosage forms have been used widely for decades mainly dueto their convenience of administration and their suitability for deliveryfor delivery of drugs for systemic effects Various types of newer andmore efficient tablets are developed to create a delivery system that isrelatively simple to administration. In one sense osmotic pump systemsare another type of membrane-controlled release drug delivery systemand work in the following way. Drug is incorporated in a tablet corewhich is water soluble, and which will solubilize or suspend the drugin the presence of water. Also, a multi-layer tablet dosage form over amore conventional mono-layer tablet is useful. The formulation of solid oral dosage formsand tablets in particular has gone rapid change and development over the last several decadeswith the emergence of pre compression, ultra high speed press, induced die feeding. Mostrecently, new concept and federal regulation bearing on bioavailability and bio equivalence,and on validation, are impacting on tablet formulation, design and manufacture.
