Abstract: 
All Pharmaceutical industries endeavour to produce good quality products which are achieved by allowing in-process and finished product quality control approaches. In-process quality control is concepts that are carried out before, after and during production covering all steps, counting the establishment of specifications, sampling, relevant testing and analytical clearance assuring that the intermediates, packaging materials and finished pharmaceutical tablets conform with approved specifications or standard for efficacy, safety and elegance which assure the consumer that the products perform consistently and in a manner satisfactory for the purpose for which it is recommended. Quality control highlights testing of products for defects which ease the producer to refuse the releases of products or carry out the possible investigation to make pharmaceutical tablets perfect before released into the market. Since different pharmacopoeias have set the diverse specified limits to some extent within which the value ought to fall with respect to be acquiescent as per the standards. Hence by comparing pharmacopoeias, an effort is made to convey the harmonized limits so that the products should meet the requirements as specified in pharmacopoeias specification to confirm the quality of pharmaceutical dosage form. The endeavour of this study is to compare various quality control assessments for pharmaceutical tablets according to different pharmacopoeias standards.
