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.
