The USP (United States Pharmacopeia) specifies that the hardness of tablets should typically be within the range of 4 to 8 kg for most oral tablets, although this can vary depending on the specific formulation and intended use. Hardness is measured using a hardness tester and is critical for ensuring that tablets can withstand handling, shipping, and storage without breaking or crumbling. Proper hardness contributes to the tablet's dissolution and bioavailability, impacting its effectiveness. Always refer to the specific monograph for each drug for precise requirements.
