Monograph on oral powders

The Committee adopted, in principle, the general monograph on oral powders and noted that it would be circulated for further comments.

Powders and granules for the preparation of oral solutions and suspensions generally conform to the definitions in the monographs on Oral powders or Granules as appropriate. They may contain excipients, in particular to facilitate dispersion or dissolution and to prevent caking. After dissolution or suspension, they comply with the requirements for oral solutions or oral suspensions, as appropriate.
