Pharmaceutical Development

Dosage Formulation

  • Majority of dosage forms (tablets, powder or liquid-filled capsules, injectables, granules, etc)
  • Feasibility studies for the development of dosage forms of an active entity
  • Pre-formulation excipients compatibility studies
  • Formulation development for new chemical entities, generics, biologics and controlled substances
  • Immediate or modified release dosage forms (gastric protection, sublingual, effervescent, delayed release)
  • Formulation patent extension
  • Evaluation of formulations (content and weight uniformity, dissolution testing, stability, flow, compression, hardness, disintegration and friability testing, bulk and tap density testing)
  • Process development (direct compression, dry and wet granulation, encapsulation, coatings)
  • Determination of the critical manufacturing steps and parameters
  • Creation and justification of the finished product specifications
  • Manufacture of R&D batches for reduced development times
  • Transfer of products and processes for large scale manufacture
  • Manufacture of clinical batches
