Pharmaceutical formulations consist of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and excipients. Appropriate excipient selection is critical to the final quality of pharmaceutical products. When designing pharmaceutical preparations, the choice of excipients should not only consider the dosage form factors and excipient functions but also the interaction and compatibility between APIs and ...
Due to the amphiphilic nature of lipids in liposomes, they can serve as candidate vehicles for drug delivery, and liposomes have received more attention than other systems because of their remarkable ability to deliver drugs to their target sites. Advantages of Liposomes as Drug Delivery Vehicles l As drug delivery vehicles, liposomes have low toxicity and immunogenicity, and the high ...
In addition, oral administration of liposome-antigen formulations may enhance antigen delivery to antigen-presenting cells.Topical drug administrationLiposomes can reduce the side effects of topical drugs because they require only small doses when used as topical formulations. ...
Contribute to the development of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) technology, formulation process, and the screening of drug salt and crystal forms. ...
Pharmaceutical excipients refer to the substances used in the production and formulation of medicines. ...
The basic requirements of pharmaceutical preparations are safety, efficacy, and stability. Drug stability means that a drug product should maintain the same properties and characteristics as it was at the time of production and within the specified time frame. The stability of pharmaceutical preparations directly affects the effectiveness and safety of drugs. Therefore, it is of great ...
Solid preparations for oral administration for children have the advantages of convenient carrying and good stability, but for children, they are prone to dysphagia. The liquid dosage form for oral administration for children not only has benefits like large dispersion and fast absorption, but also can improve the bioavailability of some drugs, which has a greater development prospect and ...
Excipients are the general term for all materials in the prescription except the main active ingredients, such as binders, disintegrants, lubricants, fillers, etc. The choice of excipients for oral solid preparations is affected by factors such as the pharmacological and chemical properties of the raw materials, the preparation process and the price of excipients. There are non-functional ...
A breakthrough in nanotechnology accelerates vaccine production While COVID-19 hotspots have continued to emerge driven by the Delta variants, the data still shows that vaccinations are effective at preventing hospitalizations and deaths. While over 4 billion vaccine doses have been administered worldwide, only 27% of the world’s population and only 1.1% of people in low-income countries ...
When Aurobindo saw the DESMI pumps in another plant in Hyderabad, India, and heard about the easy maintenance and energy savings, they agreed to buy 11 pumps for their plant, too. ”We are very impressed,” says Mr. A. Rajasekhara Reddy when asked about the DESMI pumps and their performance. Mr. Reddy continues, ”The pumps have been in operation for more than a year and we have ...
In this Application Note sodium chloride (NaCl) and mannitol are used for freeze drying experiments. The unambiguous crystal structure of NaCl renders this salt a model compound. In contrast, mannitol is well known to crystallize in different polymorphs and it may form hydrates. Nevertheless, mannitol is the most used bulking agent for freeze dried pharmaceutical formulations. The benefits of ...

Pharmaceuticals are present in low concentrations (<100 ng/L) in most municipal wastewater effluents but may be elevated locally because of factors such as input from pharmaceutical formulation facilities. Using existing concentration data, the authors assessed pharmaceuticals in laboratory exposures of fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) and added environmental complexity through effluent ...
Alendronic acid or Alendronate Sodium is a bisphosphonate drug that inhibits osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. Biphosphates work by binding to the bone and preventing calcium from being removed by osteoclasts. This drug is used to prevent and treat osteoporosis as well as several other bone diseases. Alendronate Sodium is sold as tablets or solutions, alone or in combination with Vitamin D. ...
