ABSTRACT

The key to scaling up a tableting process is to consider it during the entire development process. From the inception of a development project, the formulation scientist must consider scale-up. It should not be a process removed from development. A formulation scientist should begin a development project with the end in mind. Just as a builder, prior to nailing boards, planks, and plywood together, has a blueprint of what the structure is supposed to look like, a formulator should know what the goals of the delivery system are.
