Topic

The physicochemical properties of the excipients used in pharmaceutical technology fundamentally determine the process of drug preparation. In compulsory subjects such as Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Technology, there is no opportunity to discuss these relationships in depth. Our goal in this course is to provide our students with additional information about the physicochemical properties and incompatibilities of excipients that may be helpful in either magistral preparation or industrial drug manufacturing processes.
