Abstract

This chapter describes the basic physical and chemical properties ­relevant to drug formulation. It encompasses discussion on the active pharmaceutical ingredient, excipients, and final product and it highlights the importance of physical and chemical attributes of compounds in the selection of ingredients; development of dosage forms; and its significance in active and product assessment, characterization, performance, and quality.
