The invention relates to a process for preparing a wet granulate suitable for use in manufacturing tablets by compression and compaction thereof. The process comprises first forming an intimate mixture of particulate-solid materials including pharmacologically or like active matter and tabletting aids. Then one predetermines a quantity of granulating fluid needed to convert the entire particulate-solid mixture into a desired moist, coherent, non-pasty mass as known per se but homogenizes part only of the particulate-solid materials, separately from the remainder thereof, with a chosen amount of granulating fluid, that chosen amount being at least 90% by weight of the aforesaid predetermined quantity of granulating fluid, so as to form a substantially-homogeneous slurry wherein the percentage by weight of solids in the slurry, namely: Total Solids, i.e. both dissolved and undissolved x 100 Total Slurry, i.e. fluids plus total solids is at least about 25% w/w. Thereafter, the remaining part of the particulate-solid material is moistened in the manner of <<wet-granulation>> as known per se but with the thus-prepared slurry (and then as necessary with the balance of the granulating fluid, if any) so as thus to form the desired substantially-uniform, moist, coherent, non-pasty mass ready for granulation. |
