Ads for pill presses, encapsulating machines and related components used for compacting or filling powders, granules or other materials into tablets or capsules.
Examples: pill presses, tableting machines, dies, molds, stamps, punches used for creation or imprinting of pills and tablets.
We will begin enforcing the policy update on September 1, 2025 with full enforcement ramping up over approximately 6 weeks.
