The hardness of tablet is not an official parameter to comply with but you should check some tablets for hardness and if found failed then you must remove top tablets from container and reprocess those in the next batch.

what to do if tabs r mixed in full container.
and suppose if in 2nd case weight of individual tabs is out of range then what to do?

Is it ideal to mix one batch tablet with other?
