A REVIEW ON FORMULATIONS AND EVALUATION OF FILM COATED IMMEDIATE RELEASE TABLETS OF PIRACETAM

Abstract

Tablets are solid preparations each containing a single dose of one or more active substances with or without excipients usually obtained by compressing uniform volumes of particles. An immediate release dosage form allows a manufacturer to extend market exclusivity, while offering patients a convenient dosage form or dosage regimen. Immediate Release Tablets are those tablets which are designed to disintegrate and release their medication with no special rate controlling features, such as special coatings and other techniques. The term direct compression is used to define the process by which tablets are compressed directly from powder blends of the active ingredient and suitable Excipients which will flow uniformly into a die cavity and form into a firm compact. Wet granulation is a process of using a liquid binder to lightly agglomerate the powder mixture. Dry granulation processes create granules by light compaction of the powder blend under low pressures. After making a good tablet, coating is the next major step. Aqueous and solvent coating processes are extensively used in the pharmaceutical industry to apply functional and/or non functional coats to tablets. Packaging is the science, art and technology of enclosing or protecting products for distribution, storage, sale, and use. Packaging also refers to the process of design, evaluation, and production of packages.Blister pack is a term for several types of pre-formed plastic packaging used for small consumer goods. KEY WORDS: Tablets, immediate release, Wet granulation, Dry granulation.
