This book is conceived to reflect the practical aspects of Industrial Pharmacy. The contents of this book are an integral part of the syllabi prescribed by Pharmacy Council of India and Indian universities. This practical book covers whole of the experimental component specified in the syllabus. Authors have made special attempts to cover all aspects ranging from preformulation studies, dosage form design, product manufacturing process and evaluation. This book only discusses relevant information and has been written in simple, straightforward language. The main motivation behind this book was to cover all the important practical aspects of Industrial Pharmacy I under one umbrella at an affordable price to encourage students to read and learn.
This textbook of Industrial Pharmacy I (B. Pharm V Semester) enables the student to understand and appreciate the influence of pharmaceutical additives and various pharmaceutical dosage forms on the performance of the drug product. The book provides detailed insight into the various pharmaceutical dosage forms and their manufacturing techniques. It also helps in understanding the various considerations in development of pharmaceutical dosage forms. The book provides various techniques of formulation solid, liquid and semisolid dosage forms and their evaluation, methods for assessment of their quality. It covers all the topics as prescribed in the latest syllabus prescribed by PCI including Preformulation Studies, Tablets, Liquid orals, Hard gelatin capsules, soft gelatin capsules, Pellets, Parenteral Products, Ophthalmic Preparations, Cosmetics, Pharmaceutical Aerosols and Packaging Materials Sciences.
This handbook features contributions from a team of expert authors representing the many disciplines within science, engineering, and technology that are involved in pharmaceutical manufacturing. They provide the information and tools you need to design, implement, operate, and troubleshoot a pharmaceutical manufacturing system. The editor, with more than thirty years' experience working with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, carefully reviewed all the chapters to ensure that each one is thorough, accurate, and clear.
Delivering the active medicament to the body system for a certain therapeutic action is the central idea of Pharmaceutical technology. A Pharmaceutical drug is delivered through various routes of administration with the help of various kinds of dosage forms. Moreover a drug product should be effective, safe and stable. All the aspects of pharmaceutical texts, dealing with drug delivery basically target these three issues The book covers -Basics of dissolution study, bioavailability and stability studies (and ICH guidelines) in detail with recent guidelines -Most common and popular dosage forms viz. tablet, capsule, parenterals, suspension and emulsion have been discussed Other topics discussed include controlled release products, oral protein delivery etc -USPs of the book are easy language, to the point coverage of topics, pictorial/graphical, tabular presentation and a glossary of official definitions of all important key words of Pharmaceutics. We hope that this book shall be very useful to students as well as teachers as ready source of basics of each and every covered topic.
