Naxen
How it's made
Tablets are made by granulation and compression, then coated where the product calls for it. Made in the general production section.
How all our dosage forms are made →- 01
Dispensing
Each raw material is released by QC, then weighed for the batch under a second person's check.
- 02
Granulation
The active ingredient and excipients are mixed and granulated so the powder flows and compresses evenly.
- 03
Drying and sizing
Granules are dried to a set moisture limit and milled to a uniform size.
- 04
Blending
Lubricant is added and the blend is mixed until the active ingredient is evenly spread through it.
- 05
Compression
The press forms each tablet to a set weight, hardness and thickness, checked at intervals through the run.
- 06
Coating
Coated tablets receive a film or sugar coat in a coating pan; uncoated and chewable tablets skip this step.
- 07
Packing
Tablets are sealed into blister strips, which are coded with the batch number and expiry date.
