N-Butyl-N-methyl-1-phenylpyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine-3-carboxamide (GML-3) is an original molecule developed at the Research Zakusov Institute of Pharmacology. GML-3 has both anxiolytic and antidepressant activity, which makes the development of tablets based on it a promising task. Optimization of the pressing process is currently an urgent task of the pharmaceutical industry because this technological stage has a significant impact on the disintegration of tablets and the release of the active pharmaceutical ingredient. The Heckel and Kuenz–Leuenberger models were used to study the pressing process of GML-3 tablets. These models were compared to select the most reliable description of pressing GML-3 tablets from granules. Granules with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) as a binder were used.
