Pharmaceutical Formulation


Book Description

Formulation is a key step in the drug design process, where the active drug is combined with other substances that maximise the therapeutic potential, safety and stability of the final medicinal product. Modern formulation science deals with biologics as well as small molecules. Regulatory and quality demands, in addition to advances in processing technologies, result in growing challenges as well as possibilities for the field. Pharmaceutical Formulation provides an up to date source of information for all who wish to understand the principles and practice of formulation in the drug industry. The book provides an understanding of the links between formulation theory and the practicalities of processing in a commercial environment, giving researchers the knowledge to produce effective pharmaceutical products that can be approved and manufactured. The first chapters introduce readers to different dosage forms, including oral liquid products, topical products and solid dosage forms such as tablets and capsules. Subsequent chapters cover pharmaceutical coatings, controlled release drug delivery and dosage forms designed specifically for paediatric and geriatric patients. The final chapter provides an introduction to the vital role intellectual property plays in drug development. Covering modern processing methods and recent changes in the regulatory and quality demands of the industry, Pharmaceutical Formulation is an essential, up to date resource for students and researchers working in academia and in the pharmaceutical industry.

Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery


Book Description

Integrating aspects of physical pharmacy, biopharmaceuticals, drug delivery, and biotechnology, Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery elucidates basic physicochemical principles and their application in the design of dosage forms. The author addresses the relevance of these principles to the biopharmaceutical aspects of drugs. He explores the latest developments in the application of biomaterials, including polymers and biotechnology-based agents, to the development of novel dosage forms. The book covers physicochemical principles of dosage design, biopharmaceutical and physiological considerations, types of commonly used pharmaceutical dosage forms, introduction to polymeric biomaterials, protein and nucleic acid-based dosage forms, and novel and targeted drug delivery systems. It highlights the physicochemical parameters used for the design, development, and evaluation of biotechnological dosage forms and describes the biological barriers to drug absorption. Containing the right blend of mathematics, equations, diagrams, pictorials, and other pertinent information, this book provides a unified perspective that creates a greater overall understanding of basic science and cutting-edge technology.
