What is the difference between Break line & Score line ?
Dear friend,
In my opinion both the breaking line and score line are same.
Break line:
A pharmaceutical tablet, with a break line aligned along a long dimension of the tablet, such that a twisting action, in which parts of the tablets on opposite sides if the break line are subjected to a rotational twisting force in respectively opposite senses, causes the tablet to break into two or more parts. The tablet is of the type which may be broken into two or more parts in order to ease swallowing or to allow administration of a partial dose.
Score line:
The presence of the score line does enhance the ability to break the tablet, however, for drug products that require a highly accurate dosage, the methodology of manually splitting a tablet is inadequate.
I hope these answers will helpful to your question
Warm Regards,
Naveen Potnuru.
