BP 403 T. PHYSICAL PHARMACEUTICS-II (Theory) Hand Written Notes.
Scope: The course deals with the various physica and physicochemical properties, and
principles involved in dosage forms/formulations. Theory and practical
components of the subject help the student to get a better insight into various
areas of formulation research and development, and stability studies of
pharmaceutical dosage forms.
Objectives: Upon the completion of the course student shall be able to
- Understand various physicochemical properties of drug molecules in the
designing the dosage forms - Know the principles of chemical kinetics & to use them for stability testing nad
determination of expiry date of formulations - Demonstrate use of physicochemical properties in the formulation
development and evaluation of dosage forms.
