Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Despite the significant advancements in pharmaceutical technology and the development of novel drug delivery systems, conventional solid dosage forms, such as tablets or capsules, remain the most widely produced and trusted by patients. Their manufacturing is influenced not only by technological processes but also by the selection of excipients within the formulation. These factors enhance product quality, boost production efficiency, and lower overall costs.
Nevertheless, with increasing market competition and the need for cost-effective manufacturing strategies, advances in efficiency, drug quality, and safety remain crucial for the sustainability of pharmaceutical companies. A comprehensive understanding of formulations and manufacturing processes is therefore essential.
This Special Issue highlights the recent advancements in the design and manufacture of oral solid dosage forms. It summarizes cutting-edge research that deepens the understanding of manufacturing processes for tablets, capsules, granules, powders, and related formulations. Of particular interest are modern and complex forms, such as multi-layer tablets or combination drugs, etc., which pose unique challenges and opportunities in pharmaceutical development.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Pharmaceutics.
