- 3. INTRODUCTION Compression- Compression is a process of applying pressure to the powder material for the reduction of bulk volume to give a solid matrix. It is a process by which granules are compressed into the core tablet form. The manufacturing of solid dossage form such as a complex multistage process under which the starting material change there physical characteristics a number of time before the final dossage form is produced. Need of Compression- To form the unit dossage form For better stability as compare to other dossage form Cost effective Patient compliance 3
