Pre-formulation studies are critical in the pharmaceutical development process as they provide essential information about the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of a drug substance. This data is used to design and develop stable, effective, and manufacturable dosage forms. Here, we discuss the application of pre-formulation considerations in the development …

Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS)
The Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) is a scientific framework for classifying drugs based on their solubility and permeability. This system helps predict the drug absorption and bioavailability, which are critical factors in drug development and regulatory approval processes. BCS Classification The BCS classifies drugs into four categories: 1. Class I: …
Chemical Properties of Drug Substances
Understanding the chemical properties of drug substances is critical for predicting their stability, compatibility, and overall behavior during formulation, storage, and administration. Here, we detail key chemical processes including hydrolysis, oxidation, reduction, racemization, and polymerization, along with their significance in pharmaceutical development. Hydrolysis – Definition: Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction …
