About This Course
1. Describe the principles that underlie major unit operations used in downstream processing of small molecule drugs (SMDs). The operations covered in this short course are powder blending, drying, and tableting
2. Define terms associated with downstream processing and downstream process development
3. Design, execute and document bench-scale studies to determine appropriate operating ranges for downstream processing steps
4. Justify choices and assumptions used for downstream processing unit operations
5. Solve calculation problems
What You'll Learn
Tablets are solid dosage forms consisting of active ingredient(s) [active pharmaceutical ingredients or APIs] and suitable pharmaceutical excipients.
The manufacture of oral solid dosage forms such as tablets is a complex multi-stage process under which the starting materials change their physical characteristics a number of times before the final dosage form is produced.
Numerous unit processes are involved in making tablets, including particle size reduction and sizing, blending, granulation, drying, compaction, and (frequently) coating.
It is a key component in the pharmaceutical small molecule drug manufacturing process.
