Development and optimization of Ropinirole loaded self-nanoemulsifying tablets
Background
The present research work aims to develop a Ropinirole-loaded self-Nanoemulsifying Drug Delivery system. Ropinirole has limited oral bioavailability due to substantial first-pass metabolism, which ultimately results in poor oral bioavailability and reduces plasma drug concentration and…

Modeling the Impact of Excipients Selection on Nitrosamine Formation towards Risk Mitigation
Abstract
Risk control for nitrosamine impurities in drug products is currently a major challenge in the industry. Nitrosamines can form during drug product manufacturing and storage through the reaction of nitrites with amine-containing APIs or impurities. The level of nitrites in excipients and…
