The core functions of drug formulation

Leave a message

Enhancing drug safety and efficacy:


1. By adjusting the dosage form or excipients, controlling the release rate and site of the drug in the body reduces side effects (e.g., enteric-coated tablets protect the gastric mucosa).

Improving drug stability by preventing component decomposition caused by factors such as light and humidity.

Enhancing ease of use:


2. Formulating poorly soluble or bitter active pharmaceutical ingredients into tablets or syrups for easier administration.

Designing drops or granules suitable for children improves compliance.

 

Extending shelf life and portability:
3. Adding preservatives or antioxidants extends the drug's shelf life.

Divided packaging (e.g., aluminum-plastic blister packs) facilitates carrying and storage.
