An Overview of Lyophilization Pharmaceutical Course

This Lyophilization Pharmaceutical Course is sure to act as an outline for freeze-drying of pharmacological parenteral products. Many medicine substances necessitate the extra protection that lyophilization usually comes with, and the preparation of the liquid drug product must be designed to enhance the efficiency of the completely dried product. This course will cover multiple objectives right from how lyophilization functions to changing a liquid drug product into a dried, more-stable powder. Cycle and preparation design will be elucidated, along with the methodical values that are at play.

Reasons for You To Attend Lyophilization Pharmaceutical Course:

To study the process and reasons for formulating and designing lyophilization cycles for drugs that will gain an advantage from the freeze-drying procedure

Learning Objectives

▪         Definition of freeze-drying or Lyophilization

▪         Classify perfect features of a freeze-dried product

▪         Regulate when freeze-drying is essential

▪         Phases of the lyo cycle, and the methodical principles that drive each stage

▪         Framing drug products for fruitful freeze-drying

▪         Analytical tools used to aid in the formulation and cycle development
