Design and assessment activities associated with a biopharmaceutical process are performed at different levels of detail, based on the stage of development that the product is in. Preliminary "back-of-the envelope" assessments are performed early in the development lifecycle, whereas detailed design and evaluation are performed prior to the construction of a new facility. Both the The goal of this review article is to identify the many strategies that can be used to improve the quality, safety, and efficacy of pharmaceutical formulations by looking at the most appropriate and practicable experimental designs and optimization techniques. In today's pharmaceutical industry, optimization has arisen as a technique for finding the best compromise response to a specific problem. An advanced study of Pharmaceutical Excipients in pharmaceutical product development with a special reference to the following categories. i. Solvents and solubilizers. ii. Cyclodextrins and their applications. iii. Non-ionic surfactants and their applications. iv. Polyethylene glycols and sorbitols. The global pharmaceutical industry has been evolving in the last few decades. Patent expiries, weak pipelines, regulatory changes and product withdrawals combined with competition from generics, challenge the development and sustainability of this market. Nonetheless, external demographics and consumer market trends mean the growth Mathematical Optimization Techniques in Drug Product Design and Process Analysis - ScienceDirect Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences Volume 59, Issue 11, November 1970, Pages 1587-1596 Research Articles Mathematical Optimization Techniques in Drug Product Design and Process Analysis Dale E.FonnerJr. James R.Buck Gilbert S.Banker The Lagrangian method of optimization was employed to generate optimal formulations in typical tablet design problems and to locate optimizing levels of processing variables in a typical encapsulation design problem. Optimization techniques represent analytical tools available to the researcher in his search for the best possible solution to a particular problem. Process control and optimization is a critical aspect of process analytical technology (PAT), quality by design (QbD), and the implementation of continuous manufacturing procedures. While process control and optimization techniques have been utilized in other manufacturing industries for decades, the pharmaceutical industry has only recently begun to adopt these procedures.

THEORY 60 HRS 1. a.Preformation Concepts - Drug Excipient interactions - The term (and acronym) Process Analytical Tech-nology (PAT) was introduced by the US FDA as an intiative to bring an improved understanding of pharmaceutical manufacturing processes to in-crease the quality of their products [1]. The FDA uses the expression "to build in quality into the pharmaceutical manufacturing process", thereby Sam A.
