Pre-formulation development: physical and chemical characteristics of the proposed drug are analyzed to allow selection of optimal excipients and dosage forms. Formulation design: based on the product`s physicochemical/release characteristics and other important aspects, a range of theoretical formulations is proposed to determine how they affect the final product`s characteristics such as in vitro/in vivo performance and stability.

Most popular related searches
  • Compatibility tests: A differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) study is usually conducted to determine active drug/excipient compatibility.
  • Prototype development: APR`s contract development team develop a prototype in the laboratory using data from pre-formulation development/design and compatibility tests. Generally, only minor modifications to the prototype are required when the process is scaled up to large-scale manufacturing.
  • Preliminary stability studies: using International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines and validated analytical methods, the prototype is tested to determine if the selected formulation(s) can be considered stable . The exact nature of tests carried out depends on the product and individual customer requests.
