Who Should Attend
This broadly based course is intended for all scientists and
technologists concerned with the development and processing
of tablets, capsules and similar products with related drug
regulatory affairs.
The material will be presented in such a way as to be of value
to a varying level of expertise. This course will especially
benefit those in:
• Quality Assurance
• Marketing
• Validation
• Purchasing
• R&D
• Regulatory Affairs
• Manufacturing/Production
• Engineering Support
Note: Persons seeking an in-depth treatment of only one or
two of the major topics of this broadly based program may
wish to consider alternative, more specialized courses offered
by CfPA in this area of technology
Description
The principle aim of this course is to review the science
behind tabletted and encapsulated products. The course
begins by considering the raw materials, their characteristics,
testing and sampling, and progresses through the formulation
of solid dosage forms to manufacturing technology,
processes and equipment, including scale-up and technology
transfer. The program finishes with key aspects of the
evaluation of finished products and the regulatory constraints
that must be considered at each stage in the process. The
formal sessions of the course will be supplemented with
informal discussion periods between lecturers and the
participants. Problem solving sessions are held on both an
open and private basis.
