Common questions
Sodium Valproate, L-Carnitine, Valproate Sodium and other hygroscopic drugs that pick up moisture and create problems during compression and afterwards.
No. It is added at the blending stage ahead of compression. Where a hygroscopic active shows as sticking, picking or capping on the press, it is worth trying before reworking the granulation, because it addresses the moisture rather than the binder system.
Sticking, picking and capping are the usual signs, and they get worse as the shift goes on and ambient humidity rises. If the granulation was sound and the trouble started with the active, the moisture is the thing to address first.
