A process is disclosed for forming an outlet passageway in an osmotic dispensing device. The process comprises compressing a drug formulation into a solid mass, forming a recess in the solid mass, and then spray coating the mass with a wall forming material that surrounds the mass. The outlet passageway in the wall is formed at the recess simultaneously and automatically during the coating procedure. The passageway extends through the wall and communicates with the drug and the exterior of the device for dispensing the drug over a prolonged period of time.
