About this title

Synopsis

Most of the significant developments of medicines have occurred in the last 70 years, and by a process of trial and error many plants and other substances have been used by man to produce certain pharmalogical effects. This book is a general introduction aimed at all those involved in the engineering stages required for the manufacture of the active ingredient and its dosage forms. It also covers the design of Quality Control Laboratories, process development facilities and pilot plants, as these all play a role in ensuring medicines are of an appropriate quality and have their own special problems for pharmaceutical products.
