About this course
Once a new chemical entity has proved its potential in clinical studies, the challenge begins to formulate the compound into an effective medicine and to manufacture that medicine reliably so that safety, quality and efficacy are assured.
This module addresses fundamental aspects of formulation and processing and provides information on…
- How the physico-chemical attributes of the drug and the therapeutic indication influence:
- Route of administration
- Dosage form
- Assuring bioavailability
- Methods of manufacture of the major dosage forms
A thorough understanding of formulation and processing is a key knowledge requisite for the Quality Leader and Technical Professional. This allows them to make informed, science and risk based decisions to benefit both the business and the patient. Module QLP3, part I covers formulation issues and oral solid dosage forms. Module QLP3, part II covers parenteral products, inhalation products and topical products.
