      Types of granules

                                        Granules.
        Granules are preparations consisting of solid, dry aggregates of powder
particles sufficiently resistant to withstand handeing. They are intended for oral
administration. Some are swallowed, some are chewed and some are dissolved or
dispersed in water or another suitable liquid.
        Granules contain one or more active substances with or without excipients
and, if necessary, colouring matter and flavoring substances.
        Granules are presented as single-dose or multidose preparations. Each dose
of a multidose preparation is administered by means of a device suitable for
measuring the quantity prescribed. For single-dose granules, each dose is enclosed
in an individual container, for example a sachet, a paper packet or a vial.
        Several categories of granules may be distinguished:
   1) effervescent granules
   2) coated granules
