This work is an examination of all aspects of the science in developing effective dosage form for drug delivery Pharmaceutics refers to the subfield of pharmaceutical sciences that develops drug delivery products or devices to optimize the drug's performance once administered. This multidisciplinary field draws on physical chemistry, organic chemistry, and biophysics to generate and refine these crucial elements of medical care. Moreover, incorporating such disparate dimensions of drug product design as material properties and legal regulation bridges the gap between effective chemicals and viable medical treatments. Integrated Pharmaceutics provides a comprehensive introduction to the creation and manufacture of effective dosage forms for drug delivery. It presents its subject following the principles of physical pharmacy, product design, and drug regulations. This tripartite structure allows readers to move from theory to practice, beginning from a firm foundation of physical pharmacy principles, including drug solubility and stability estimation, rheology, and interfacial properties. From there, it proceeds to discussions of drug product design and of harmonizing pharmaceutical design with the regulatory regimens and technological standards of the United States, European Union, and Japan. Readers of the second edition of Integrated Pharmaceutics will also find: * A glossary defining key terms, extensive informative appendices, and a list of references leading to the primary literature in the field for each chapter * Earlier chapters are expanded, with additional new chapters including one entitled "Biotechnology Products" * Supplementary instructor guide with questions and solutions available online for registered professors * Updated regulatory guidelines including quality by design, design space analysis, process analytical technology, polymorphism characterization, blend sample uniformity, and stability protocols Integrated Pharmaceutics is a useful textbook for graduate students in pharmaceutical sciences, drug formulation and design, and biomedical engineering. In addition, professionals in the pharmaceutical industry, including regulatory bodies, will find it a helpful reference guide.

The breadth and depth of pharmaceutics is expertly covered by this well‐written and organized second edition of Integrated Pharmaceutics: Applied Preformulation, Product Design, and Regulatory Science. This book should be required reading for educating our next generation of pharmaceutical scientists as it provides up‐to‐date discussion, explanation, relevant examples, and case studies of a plethora of important topics required for both academic and industrial scientists. Part 1, which covers preformulation aspects that must be considered when developing a drug into a product, includes expanded content of such critical concepts as solubility and dissolution, bioavailability and bioequivalence, interfacial properties, adsorption phenomenon, rheological principles, chemical stability and shelf‐life determination, particle science, statistics as related to experimental design, and formulation development concepts. Following in a logical sequence, Part II then provides in‐depth instruction directly related to the design and development of specific dosage forms, including tablets, capsules, dispersed systems (e.g. suspensions, emulsions, colloids), aerosol products (including a helpful section on excipients used in aerosol products), sterile injectable products, ophthalmic products, transdermal products, and oral modified‐release products (including specific examples of coated and matrix modified‐release systems). These chapters will be particularly useful to undergraduate and graduate students in pharmaceutics, pharmacy, and engineering. Lastly, Part III wraps up the book with a comprehensive discussion of the regulatory sciences that every pharmaceutical scientist should have a working knowledge of, including discussion of regulatory practices and guidelines for regulatory agencies around the world, application of regulations for compounding pharmacies, processes involved in IND and NDA drug development studies, regulatory requirements for biological, biosimilar, generic and OTC products, accelerated NDA and expedited access for new therapies, guidance related to drug master files, EU dossiers and API GMP processes, commissioning and qualification, overall quality systems, safety, toxicology and pharmacogenomics studies related to product approval, and discussion of medical devices, combination products, dietary supplements and animal drugs, and devices. It is evident that this second edition provides the reader with important and current aspects of the science involved in successfully developing a pharmaceutical product. As a 35‐year veteran industrial and academic pharmaceutical scientist, I commend the authors for having provided this expertly written and updated contribution to the pharmaceutical sciences.

The wide variety of topics covered by the authors in this book emphasize both the depth and breadth of knowledge needed for pharmaceutical scientists to bring a drug product to the marketplace successfully. The challenge of designing and developing compounds into pharmaceutical products, which are critical to the survival of both the biotech and pharmaceutical industries, will depend largely on the education and extensive training required for young pharmaceutical scientists. This book gives the reader an understanding of the basic and applied sciences involved in the development and approval of a pharmaceutical product through regulatory authorities. Unfortunately, these topics have slowly lost their emphasis over the past several years in graduate courses taught in our colleges of pharmacy.
The eleven chapters in Part I cover preformulation topics, wherein the physical and chemical properties of a drug substance, along with its stability and interactions with excipients and the biological aspects of the formulations, are discussed in detail. These and other preformulation topics covered in this section outline the basic properties that fingerprint both the characteristics of a drug substance and the properties of ingredients that must be considered when formulating a physically and chemically stable dosage form. Part II, Chapters 12 through 20, covers product design topics. The regulatory science aspects of drug development are covered in Chapters 21 through 31. This is yet another area that has received minimal attention in graduate schools.
For both the academic and industrial scientists, and graduate students whose research is focused in this field, the authors have emphasized important aspects of materials science and processing that must be addressed for a successful product introduction following approval through regulatory authorities. The chapters in this book flow extremely well and provide very useful information not only to undergraduate and graduate students in pharmaceutics, pharmacy, materials sciences, and engineering but also to faculty and industrial scientists in these disciplines.

The second edition of Integrated Pharmaceutics: Applied Preformulation, Product Design, and Regulatory Science expands on the original edition and emphasizes greater integration among the three main sections of the textbook. It is still our intention for the text to deliver valuable material to practitioners, pharmaceutical scientists, and graduate students engaging in research and learning in pharmaceutical sciences in general and pharmaceutics/industrial pharmacy as a major. To that end, this new edition of the book continues to serve those engaged in designing pharmaceutical drug products. The new material added to the second edition reflects suggestions we heard from colleagues and students and the latest trends in the development of dosage forms. While no text can claim complete inclusion of all material on a given subject, the reader of this second edition can find it more comprehensive in its delivered information. The unique integration of regulatory affairs considerations related to product design discussions continues to be featured. While we added newer material to the text, some of the less helpful content was excluded from this edition. Readers may refer to the first edition if they desire to access these omitted topics.
The reader will find that the new edition still contains the basic information that is necessary to formulate a pharmaceutical dosage form. The second edition expands on these topics by making each chapter more comprehensive. Specifically, some of the modifications made on the first edition that are found in this current edition incorporate the following: methods of API solubility enhancement, nonionic, ionic, and acid–base concepts related to solubility and dissolution; interactions involved the drug’s states of matter (solid, liquid, and gas) in a formulation structure and the influence of these interactions on the biological aspects of formulations; liquid–liquid interface, formulation and optimization techniques, and determination of HLB values; data handling in rheometry and the use of rheometry in reverse engineering of a topical dosage form are explored; expanded information on the theoretical aspects of drug stability that include chemical equilibrium theories and applications; particle dimension, types of particle diameter, and the use of particle diameters in formulation development; more examples on statistical analysis, in particular applications related to using JMP® Statistical Discovery Software, Version <14.0>, SAS Institute Inc., Cary, North Carolina in analyzing and interpreting data related to drug development; process analytical technologies (PATs) and scale‐up methodologies; vaccines technology; formulation and process designs, container closure characteristics, various attribute tests, and stability assessment of the final ophthalmic product; FDA inspection and CGMP check list; comparison of regional (EMA, China, FDA, Japan, and WHO) GMP chapters; the recent regulations governing compounding (503A and 505B), USP Chapter 797, compounding sterile preparations, self‐inspection/audit, and a check list (questionnaire); Part 58 (Good laboratory Practice), CGMP for Phase 1 investigational drugs (Guidance for Industry), sterile drug products produced by aseptic processes (CGMP Guidance for Industry), and ICH E6 (R2) Good Clinical Practice; 21 CFR 320 Bioavailability and Bioequivalence requirements as well as development and approval of biosimilars in the USA and EU; Emergency Use Authorization; Orphan Drugs regulations; risk‐based qualifications; Part 820 Quality Systems regulations, Part 820 QSR‐Auditor’s Check List, and Part 11 Electronic Records/Electronic Signature and Auditor’s Check List; GMP guidance (Q7) for APIs.

The idea for this book was born out of the authors’ desire to create a textbook to be used for several courses in our pharmaceutical science BS/MS curriculum and cooperative BS/MS engineering/pharmaceutical sciences program approved by North Carolina State University, Raleigh, North Carolina, and Campbell University, Buies Creek, North Carolina. The book will also be used as part of the College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences Pharm.D. program. The book’s theme and scope focus on the application of the principles of physical pharmacy, product design, and regulatory science and how they relate in an intricate web to produce effective dosage forms that deliver drugs to their site of action. Currently, there is a critical shortage of pharmaceutical scientist specialists in product design and related technologies. Historically, most pharmaceutical scientists were educated in pharmacy schools. These programs integrated biology, pharmacology, chemistry, mathematics, physics, and materials science with one overarching goal: drug delivery to treat the human condition. A majority of the Ph.D. pharmaceutical scientists were educated as B.S. pharmacists. Over the past 30 years, pharmacy education has become more drug therapy focused and less drug delivery oriented. Federal funding has also followed this trend, leaving unprecedented shortages of academic pharmaceutical scientists. In addition, the shift in pharmacy education emphasis has required that the pharmaceutical industry hire chemists, biologists, and engineers who do not have the benefit of the integrated educational program that was once offered by schools of pharmacy. These employees are trained (not educated) on the job, although some schools of engineering are trying to fill some of the educational void.
The novel approach of this book is, as much as possible, to integrate international harmonized pharmaceutical development regulatory guidelines and requirements with the science and technology of pharmaceutical product design. New regulatory guidelines such as quality by design, design space analysis, process analytical technology, polymorphism characterization, blend sample uniformity, stability protocols, and the biopharmaceutical classification system are integrated throughout the text. In Part I, we present the fundamentals of physical pharmacy and preformulation as they apply to pharmaceutical dosage form design. Topics such as thermodynamics, drug solubility, drug stability, rheological aspects of formulation, interfacial science, bioavailability, and others are covered in this part. Other chapters cover basic mathematical, statistical, and design‐of‐experiment concepts.
In Part II, we elaborate on the complex multifactorial process that brings together drug delivery to treat a human condition with formulation, manufacturing process, and container closure system design. The inextricable interrelationships among the formulation, the process, and the container closure system are emphasized by integrating each of these product design features into a single dosage‐form chapter. Unification of appropriate preformulation and regulatory science applications is also highlighted. A similar format is incorporated for most chapters: an introduction that discusses the relevant anatomical and bodily function that affect drug delivery, advantages and disadvantages of the product, formulation design that examines dosage‐form‐specific preformulation, excipient compatibility, formulation development; process design, relevant process analytical technologies, pertinent scale‐up models and practices, container closure system design incorporating critical patient and product considerations, risk management, in‐process and final product attribute tests, and new drug application stability assessment programs. Most chapters include extensive reference appendixes of functional excipients, their compendial status, and usage levels. Other reference appendixes include surfactant hydrophile–lipophile balance (HLB) values, oil‐required HLB values, sequestering agent stability constants, lyophilization bulking agents, and eutectic and collapse temperatures.
Part III covers regulations as specified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), European Medicines Agency, and other international regulatory agencies. This part provides a broad spectrum of topics from compliance requirements (current good manufacturing and good laboratory practices, and others), International Conference on Harmonization and other global harmonization initiatives, the investigational new drug (IND) and new drug application (NDA) phase‐appropriate new drug development process, pre‐ and post‐approval processes (INDs, NDAs, abbreviated NDAs, and drug master files), accelerated approval and initiatives for orphan and pediatric drug development, post–drug approval activities, quality system controls, commissioning and qualification (of facilities, equipment, analytical instruments, and test methods, among others), regulatory requirements for all facets of extemporaneous compounding (from handling of prescription for compounding to patient counseling), recommendations for conducting and reporting results of nonclinical and clinical safety and toxicology studies, barriers and benefits of pharmacogenomics studies, to the most recent FDA initiative on regulatory science.
In summary, the book introduces a fresh approach to presenting industrial pharmacy by combining physical pharmacy, product design, and regulatory science issues in a single compendium. The authors hope that the integrated perspective presented will be useful for undergraduate, graduate, and professional pharmacy students and will provide pharmaceutical scientists with a reference resource. The authors will also greatly appreciate feedback and comments that lead to improvements in the book.
The authors wish to thank Bob Stagner for reviewing Chapters 12 through 20, 23, 25, and 26 and for providing constructive suggestions, and Paul Johnson for reviewing and providing helpful suggestions on chapters 23 and 29.
