Question

Slugging process is also known as………

• A. Wet granulation
• B. Direct compression
• C. Dry granulation
• D. Melt granulation

Hint:

Slugging = Dry granulation. Use when your formulation can't tolerate moisture or heat.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The slugging process is a type of dry granulation method where powders are compressed into large tablets or slugs under high pressure. These slugs are then milled to form granules. It is preferred when the formulation is moisture- or heat-sensitive, eliminating the need for water or heat in granule formation.
