Granulation steps as wet granulation are applied before the final step of tableting in order to achieve content uniformity, flowability and compressibility. Wet granulation applies water and therefore needs a drying step. To omit this for reasons of cost and API stability dry granulation or roller compaction is a compromise to achieve the desired content uniformity without having water involved and a subsequent drying step. Studies available in literature mostly focus on the use of MCC and lactose in this…
