Focusing on the application of physical pharmacy, drug design, and drug regulations as they relate to produce effective dosage forms for drug delivery, Integrated Pharmaceutics provides a comprehensive picture of pharmaceutical product design, describing the science and art behind the concepts of dosage form development. Combining physical pharmacy, product design, and regulatory affairs issues in a single book, the authors address topics governing drug regulations of United States, European, and Japanese agencies and detail new regulatory guidelines, including quality by design, design space analysis, and blend sample uniformity.

Over 90 case studies based on real life patient-care scenarios. Each case includes learning outcomes and references.

Pharmaceutics: the science of medicine design explores the different forms that medicines can take, and demonstrates how being able to select the best form - be it a tablet, injectable liquid, or an inhaled gas - requires an understanding of how chemicals behave in different physical states.

This fully revised and updated third edition of Pharmaceutical Inhalation Aerosol Technology encompasses the scientific and technical foundation for the rationale, design, componentry, assembly and quality performance metrics of therapeutic inhalers in their delivery of pharmaceutical aerosols to treat symptoms or the underlying causes of disease. It focuses on the importance of pharmaceutical engineering as a foundational element of all inhaler products and their application to pulmonary drug delivery. The expanded scope considers previously unaddressed aspects of pharmaceutical inhalation aerosol technology and the patient interface by including aerosol delivery, lung deposition and clearance that are used as measures of effective dose delivery. Key Features: Provides a thoroughly revised and expanded reference with authoritative discussions on the physiologic,pharmacologic, metabolic, molecular, cellular and physicochemical factors, influencing the efficacy and utilization of pharmaceutical aerosols Emphasizes the importance of pharmaceutical engineering as a foundational element of all inhaler products and their application to pulmonary drug delivery Addresses the physics, chemistry and engineering principles while establishing disease relevance Expands the ‘technology’ focus of the original volumes to address the title more directly Offers an impressive breadth of coverage as well as an international flavour from outstanding editors and contributors

This volume provides a wide-ranging overview of organic chemistry as applied to the study and practice of pharmacy. Drugs are simply chemicals, so to fully understand their manufacture, formulation, and the way they work in our bodies, an understanding of organic compounds and their reactions is essential --

Clinical Pharmacy Education, Practice and Research provides an essential foundation for pharmacy students and pharmacists globally. - Covers the core information needed for pharmacy practice courses - Includes multiple case studies and practical situations with 70% focused on practical clinical pharmacology knowledge - Designed for educational settings, but also useful as a refresher for advanced students and researchers

We are pleased to present "Guide to Pharmaceutics," a book which is designed with our experience from being a pharmacy student to a professional, over the years. We have been exposed to different sectors from research to corporate and finally to the academics. During this course of time especially during our academic days we have encountered that many students particularly from Diploma in Pharmacy was struggling to understand the key points of the subject. What most influenced us to write this question answer based guidebook, is the way in which Diploma in Pharmacy students was answering the questions. This book is edited by, Dr. Mohammed Asadullah Jahangir, Associate Professor at Nibha Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, India; Dr. Mohammed Shadab Shahab, Associate Professor at Nibha Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, India; Mr. Sohrab Alam, Associate Professor at Nibha Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, India and Dr. Archana, Principal at MGM College of Pharmacy, India. The salient features of the current book are: 1. Question answer based chapter wise discussion as per PCI syllabus. 2. Easy to understand the language of the subject matter. 3. Necessary details are provided throughout the chapter. 4. Neat and clean diagrams are given for better understanding of the subject matter. 5. Being a question answer based guidebook it aims to make students understand the way of writing answers during examinations.

This book explains task management concepts and outlines practical knowledge to help pharmaceutical analytical scientists become productive and enhance their career. Presents broad topics such as product development process, regulatory requirement, task and project management, innovation mindset, molecular recognition, separation science, degradation chemistry, and statistics. Provokes thinking through figures, tables, and case studies to help understand how the various functions integrate and how analytical development can work efficiently and effectively by applying science and creativity in their work. Discusses how to efficiently develop a fit-for-purpose HPLC method without screening dozens of columns, gradients, or mobile phase combinations each time, since the extra effort may not provide enough of a benefit to justify the cost and time in a fast-paced product development environment.

The Integrated Foundations of Pharmacy series is for those at the start of their journey to become a pharmacist. It helps students understand how a drug molecule is made and then turned into a medicine; the role they will have when dispensing; and how the medicine works in the body. Most importantly, it shows how all of these aspects come together.

Biologically active natural products and their substructures have long been valuable starting points for medicinal chemistry and drug discovery. This new volume explores biologically active natural products and their use in microbial technologies and as phyto-pharmaceuticals in drug development. It presents detailed scientific principles and recent research on applications of nanotechnology in diagnostics and drug delivery. Topics include pharmacotherapeutically active proteins and peptides; the biotechnological potential of hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria; synthesis and production; synthetic colorants, pigments, dyes, and lakes; and more. The use of various plants is discussed in several chapters, including Artemisia, Asteraceae, Abutilon indicum, Prosopis juliflora, Acacia arabica, Aloe barbadensis, Tabermontana divaricate Linn., among others. With the information presented in Biologically Active Natural Products: Microbial Technologies and Phyto-Pharmaceuticals in Drug Development, scientists, faculty, and graduate students will gain a unique insight into nanotechnology and natural pharmaceuticals today with practical implementation in various industrial sectors.
