Other than the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), pharmaceutical excipients are materials that are purposefully included to a medication delivery system after undergoing a suitable safety evaluation.
The functions of excipients in a formulation vary. Among the principal roles are:
- Aid in the processing of the drug delivery system during its manufacture.
- Protect, support or enhance stability, bioavailability or patient acceptability.
- Assist in product identification and enhance any attribute of the overall safety.
- Assist in the effectiveness and/or delivery of the drug in use.
- Assist in maintaining the integrity of the drug product during storage.
Excipients are essential to the creation of stable dosage forms, their administration, and the medication development process. Global excipient maker A&C provides GMP custom packaging, GMP production, and GMP custom ingredient development.
