Introduction Poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) or PLGA, a highly hydrophobic copolymer comprised of lactic acid and glycolic acid, has been approved in many drug products and medical devices.1 Over the years since the first approved in 1997, PLGA has been widely studied polymer in the industry because…

Abstract The management of chronic conditions often requires patients to take daily medication for an extended duration. However, the need for daily dosing can lead to nonadherence to the therapy, which can result in the recurrence of the disease. Long-acting parenteral drug delivery systems have…

A drug’s aqueous solubility is defined as the ability to dissolve in a particular solvent, and it is currently a major hurdle in bringing new drug molecules to the market. According to some estimates, up to 40% of commercialized products and 70–90% of drug candidates in the development stage are…

Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) can exist in multiple crystal forms, known as polymorphs, that are chemically identical. Polymorphs of an API can appear over the course of development and lead to deviations across batches affecting stability, tableting properties, flowability,…

Co-amorphous systems have been shown to be a promising strategy to address the poor water solubility of many drug candidates. However, little is known about the effect of downstream processing-induced stress on these systems. The aim of this study is to investigate the compaction properties of…
