  • Abstract:
  • Pelletization is an agglomeration process that converts fine powders or granules of bulk drugs and excipients into small, free flowing, spherical or semi-spherical units, referred to as pellets. This review outlines manufacturing of spherical pellets. The manufacturing techniques include Drug layering, Extrusion-Spheronization, Cryopelletization, Compression, Balling, Hot-Melt Extrusion Technology, Freeze pelletization, Spray-drying & Spray-congealing. Factors affecting pelletization technique and advantages, disadvantages of pellets are discussed.
