Description
This intensive course provides the participants with the knowledge of how packaging for all types of pharmaceuticals (ethical, OTC, veterinary medicines) and other related products are developed, manufactured, tested, filled, transported, stored and used. Emphasis will be placed on the characteristics of all commonly used packaging materials which can influence the packed product; protection, compatibility, safety, compliance, design, performance on the filling and closing lines, as well as during distribution, marketing and use. The relevant physical and chemical properties of each type of material are identified and covered in detail. This course will also accentuate the importance of the influence of the processes used to manufacture, convert or prepare materials for use, on their specifications, performance and quality of the final packages. Future and present trends in health-care packaging will be reviewed. The increasing amount of information, that is needed on packaging, to satisfy both the company and regulatory authorities will be examined from a worldwide perspective. Through exercises in small groups and discussions, participants will be given practice at developing solutions to, and prevent, problems that can occur in practice, in product stability and material-machinery interfaces. Examples and samples of various packs and packaging systems will be used.
