French term

(charactéristiques) pharmacotechniques

French to English Medical Medical: Pharmaceuticals pharmaceutical products
lists mean mass, uniformity, resistance to breakage, etc. of a tablet.

I hesitate to use 'pharmacotechnical' because the references I've seen are mostly translations.

Drmanu49 Jun 27, 2006:
To answer Michael's remark in physical characteristics, the mechanicval aspect is missing so I suggest: "physico-chemical and mechanical characteristics of a tablet" which seem to take into account everything mentioned in the question.

physical characteristics

This is an option to avoid the translatorism you have already found, and it should cover all the features you describe. There might be a better option though.

Thank you
neutral Michael Barnett : I'm not happy with this Manu. Pharmacological features suggests the biological actions of the drug, not its physical features.//Permeability, yes, but it is not on the list. The other characteristics are biology independent.

Ok Michael I understand what you mean now.
