Tablets are solid dosage form containing active ingredient with or without suitable excipient. Nutraceuticals Tablet manufacturing process includes two steps: granulation and direct compression. In granulation, fine or coarse particles are converted into physically stronger and larger agglomerates having good flow properties, better compression characteristics and uniformity. To form a tablet, the granulated powder material is compressed in a die with the help of machines designed for the purpose. The tablets are usually coated with inert substances like starch to help them disintegrate in the digestive tract of the patient. A sweetener or flavored agent is sometimes added to the tablets to make them palatable.
