Establishing Acceptance Limits for Uniformity of Dosage Units: Part Two

The author describes how to establish acceptance limits for acceptance value (AV) data for process validation batches, typical characteristics of AV distributions, and how to derive relevant constants for AV control charts in annual product review and continued process verification reports.

In Part Two, the author describes how to establish the corresponding acceptance limits for AV data for process validation batches, the typical characteristics of AV distributions, and finally, how to derive relevant constants for AV control charts in annual product review and continued process verification reports.
