[Objectives] To optimize the forming process of Yi medicine Tongfeng Granules. [Methods] The forming process of Yi medicine Tongfeng Granules was optimized, with paste density, ethanol volume fraction, and type and proportion of excipient as inffuencing factors, and granule formability, solubility, moisture absorption, and angle of repose as evaluation indicators. Critical relative humidity (CRH) was investigated to select optimal storage conditions. [Results] Maltodextrin was selected as the excipient, and the best procees parameters was the ratio of drug to excipient at 1 : 2 ( g/g), under which the forming rate, solubility, moisture absorption rate, and angle of repose were 81.38%, 98.90%, 8. 81%, and 27.5°, respectively. The critical relative humidity was 72%. [Conclusions] The forming procees adopted is reasonable and feasible, and can provide a reference for large-scale production of Yi medicine Tongfeng Granules.
