Handbook of Pharmaceutical Additives: An International Guide to More Than 6000 Products by Trade Name, Chemical, Function, and Manufacturer

0/5 ( ratings)

This Handbook of Pharmaceutical Additives describes more than 3,500 trade name products and 2,500 chemicals that function as pharmaceutical additives. Pharmaceutical additives are defined in this reference as the secondary ingredients that are present in both prescription and over-the-counter drug formulations and function to enable or enhance the delivery of the drug or medicine in a variety of dosage forms . This definition of pharmaceutical additives encompasses excipients, inert or inactive ingredients, as well as synergists or chemicals that substantively contribute to the medicinal effects of the active ingredient. Therefore, the range of functionality of the products and chemicals contained in this reference include: improvement in flow characteristics, product uniformity, stability, taste and appearance; ease of handling and administration of the dose, convenience of use, and control of bioavailability. Entries for both trade names and chemicals contain extensive information gathered from world-wide manufacturers, distributors, trade journals, government documents, and other references. This reference functions as a single source for information on both the trade name products and the generic chemicals that are used as pharmaceutical additives. Information on ingredients that are approved by the FDA or recommended by USP/NF, BP, Eur. Ph, and JP is included in the individual entries and summarized in the Appendix. The products described in this Handbook are cross-referenced by chemical composition, function, CAS number, EINECS number and FEMA number.
