INDICES> Calcium Carbonate and Ferrous Sulphate Syrup

[renu/chinu <sahajbaroda@vsnl.com>]

We have had trouble formulating Calcium Carbonate tablets. It gets
powdery quickly. Can anyone tell us what is the manufacturing
procedure, or is any special trick involved? We presently manufacture
Calcium Lactate instead, among the 60 odd other products we make.

Also I would like to know if anybody has come out with a stable (stable
for 2 years say) formulation of Ferrous Sulphate syrup, without any
other ingredients added (maybe with the exception of folic acid) as is
the case in the market in India. If yes, I would appreciate more
details.

Thanks,
