Clopidogrel Bisulphate is very hygroscopic and show rapid degradation when processed with alkali salt as Mg++, Ca++ etc picking, sticking, or other kind of surface irregularities are other processing problems associated with it so, selection of excipients were done for preparation of stable dosage form which was free from any surface irregularities.
