Biopharmaceutics and Pharmacokinetics: Overview

4.9K
Understanding drugs, drug products, and their performance in pharmaceutical science is pivotal. Drugs, whether simple molecules or complex compounds, are designed to interact with the body's biological systems to diagnose, treat, or prevent diseases. Drug products include various delivery systems such as tablets, capsules, injections, and inhalers. The performance of these drug products is gauged by their ability to deliver the active ingredient to the desired site of action at the...

Preclinical Development: Overview01:28

Preclinical Development: Overview

6.3K
Preclinical development consists of a series of tests that ensure the safety and efficacy of a new therapeutic compound before it is tested in humans. There are four main phases to this process. First, safety pharmacology tests are conducted to ensure the drug does not produce any acutely harmful effects. These tests examine parameters such as bronchoconstriction, cardiac dysrhythmias, blood pressure changes, and ataxia. Next, preliminary toxicological testing is performed to determine the...

Drug Administration and Therapy Phases: Overview

1.6K
Drugs, the chemical agents used in diagnosing, treating, or preventing diseases, undergo a four-phase process of development: pharmaceutic, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and therapeutic.
The pharmaceutical phase focuses on leveraging the physicochemical properties of the drug to design and manufacture an effective product. Variants include orally administered tablets or capsules, topical creams or ointments, and parenteral-delivery solutions or emulsions.
The pharmacokinetic phase...

Biopharmaceutical Factors Influencing Drug Product Design: Overview01:22

Biopharmaceutical Factors Influencing Drug Product Design: Overview

402
Rational drug product design integrates knowledge of the drug’s physicochemical properties, formulation components, manufacturing techniques, and intended route of administration. Each factor influences the drug’s performance, including how it is released, absorbed, and eliminated in the body.The physicochemical properties of a drug—such as solubility, stability, and particle size—affect its compatibility with excipients and the choice of dosage form. Excipients, though...

Drug Dissolution: Requirements and Profile Comparison

379
The acceptance criteria for dissolution profile data are anchored in Q values, representing the percentage of drug dissolved within a specified period. This assessment unfolds in three stages:First Stage: The test passes if all six drug dosage units are equal to or greater than Q plus 5%; otherwise, the sample proceeds to the second stage.Second Stage: The average of twelve units must be equal to or greater than Q, with no unit falling below Q - 15% to pass; if not, it progresses to the final...

Clinically Relevant Drug Product Specifications: Methods of Establishment

279
Product specifications define the acceptable quality of a pharmaceutical product by ensuring identity, purity, potency, and strength. These specifications serve as benchmarks during development, manufacturing, and post-approval quality control. Clinically relevant specifications are particularly important because they directly relate to a drug's safety and efficacy in clinical use.Dissolution studies are critical biopharmaceutic tools that link in vitro behavior to in vivo performance. They...

Area of Science:

  • Pharmaceutical Sciences Education
  • Academic Program Assessment

Background:

  • Master of Science in Pharmaceutical Sciences (MSPS) programs require robust assessment strategies.
  • Existing assessment methods may not adequately capture program-level outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and implement a program-level assessment process for an MSPS program.
  • To refine assessment tools and program goals based on initial findings.

Main Methods:

  • Program goals were established and aligned with course learning objectives.
  • Course directors developed embedded assessment tools for data collection.
  • Iterative reviews with an assessment committee and peer discussions informed process improvements.

Main Results:

  • Initial assessment iterations identified issues with tool quality and goal alignment.
  • Inconsistent application of assessment levels (e.g., Bloom's Taxonomy) affected data reliability.
  • Collaborative discussions led to revised program goals and enhanced assessment tools.

Conclusions:

  • A feasible program-level assessment process was developed using course-embedded tools and iterative refinement.
  • Faculty buy-in was facilitated through inclusive involvement and collaborative problem-solving.
  • Peer discussions proved effective in achieving consensus and improving assessment practices.
