Q

Consists of granules coated with one or more
layers of mixtures of various excipients.

A

Coated granules

18
Q

Substances used as coatings, generally
Polymers, are usually applied as solution or
suspension in conditions in which evaporation
of the vehicle occurs leaving a film ot coating

A

Coated granules

19
Q

It is also referred to as enteric coated.

A

Gastro-resistant

20
Q

Gastro-resistant granules
are ___________granules that are intended
to resist gastric fluid release of the active
substances in the intestinal fluid.

A

delayed release

21
Q

Coated or uncoated granules that contain
special excipients or which are prepared by
special procedures both designed to modify
the rate, place, time at which the active
substances are released.

A

Modified release

22
Q

Pharmaceutical process which attempts to
convert powdered materials into aggregates

A

Granulation

23
Q

TYPES OF GRANULATION

A

Dry granulation
Wet granulation
Fluid bed granulation

24
Q

Allows granulation with or without moisture

A

Granulating machine/Granulator

25
Q

Employed in large scale manufacturing

A

Granulating machine/Granulator

26
Q

granules are formed by compacting
large masses of the powder mixture and
subsequently crushing it into pieces.

A

Dry granulation

27
Q

requires the drug or the diluent to
have cohesive properties to form large
masses.

A

Dry granulation

28
Q

Involves wetting powder mixture, sieving and
drying in preparation of granules

A

Wet granulation

29
Q

A liquid binder or an adhesive is first
added to the powder mixture. The moist
mass is then passed through a screen
of the desired mesh size and the
resulting granules are dried. The dried
granules can be passed through the
second screen of a smaller mesh to
reduce the size of the granules, even
powder.

A

Wet Granulation method

30
Q

results in granules that are too hard for
proper tableting.

A

Overwetting

31
Q

results to soft tablets that tends to
crumble

A

Underwetting

32
Q

3rd method of granulation

A

Fluid bed granulation

33
Q

T/F: Since microparticles are considered as
granules, approaches of making
microparticles such as fluid bed drying
technology can be used for granulation.

A

T

34
Q

A granulating solution is sprayed on to the
suspended particles that are then dried
rapidly in the suspending air.

A

Fluid bed granulation

35
Q

Penicillin G is also known as

A

Benzyl Penicillin

36
Q

Penicillin V is also known as

A

Phenoxymethyl

37
Q

A modified penicillin having C6H5OCH2 as
radical

A

Penicillin V

38
Q

Relatively stable in the presence of gastric
acidity, soluble in duodenal fluids and orally
effective without buffer

A

Penicillin V

39
Q

Pharmacologic category of PHENOXYMETHYL PENICILLIN
POTASSIUM GRANULES FOR ORAL SOLUTION

A

Antibacterial
Anti-infective derived from natural source

40
Q

provides faster and higher blood level than
phenoxymethyl penicillin

A

Oral Pen V. Potassium

41
Q

CGMP requirement of Antibacterial prep

A

Must be manufactured in a separate area from
non-penicillin
