During compression of batch DBX100-2604-001, tablet hardness exceeded the upper alert limit for 18 minutes.
Compression was paused, affected tablets were segregated, and QA was notified within 30 minutes.
| Area | Assessment |
|---|---|
| Product Quality | Potential dissolution impact requires testing |
| Data Integrity | No missing or altered records identified |
The team reviewed compression force trends, tooling setup, and operator log entries.
Incorrect feeder speed adjustment contributed to over-compression.
