Experiment No: 01     Date: 31.10.2023 Name of the Experiment: Determination of Uniformity of Weight of Paracetamol 500 mg Tablet. Principle: The uniformity of the tablet dosage units can be demonstrated by either weight variation or content uniformity test. Weight variation is a compendial test for tablet dosage form and performed when- Tablets to be tested are uncoated. A tablet contains 50mg or more of a single active ingredient comprising 50% or more by weight of the tablet dosage form unit. If the drug forms greater part of the tablet any variation in the tablet weight obviously indicates a variation in the active ingredient. Tablet dosage-form uniformly by weight variation is determined by selecting not less than 30 tablets from each production batch and weighing accurately at least 10 tablets individually and calculating the average weight as- Average weight =  Total weight variation Number of tablet \          Average weight of tablets X = X 1 + X 2 + X 3 ….
