Pharma Third Party Manufacturing site should be capable of assisting in early-stage process development for both APIPosted by Akums Drugs & Pharmaceuticals Ltd on June 10th, 2023
Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) API stands for "Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient," is the part of a drug that produces the intended pharmacological effect and is responsible for the therapeutic activity of a medication. Simply, the API is the chemical substance that is responsible for treating a specific condition or disease. For example, in a painkiller medication, the API would be the chemical that actually reduces pain. Pharmaceutical companies use APIs to create medications, which are then formulated into different dosage forms, such as tablets, capsules, injections, or creams. The APIs used in medications are subject to strict quality standards and regulatory requirements, ensuring that they are safe and effective for human use. Finished drug product (FDP) A finished drug product (FDP) is a medication that has completed the manufacturing process and is ready to be dispensed to patients.A finished drug product typically consists of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), which is the part of the medication that produces the intended pharmacological effect, as well as other inactive ingredients, which may include fillers, binders, and coatings. The formulation of an FDP can vary depending on the intended route of administration, dosage strength, and other factors. FDPs can be available in different dosage forms, such as tablets, capsules, injections, or creams, and can be marketed under different brand names by different pharmaceutical companies. Before a finished drug product can be marketed and sold to patients, it must undergo extensive testing and regulatory approval by government agencies, such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or the European Medicines Agency (EMA). These agencies evaluate the safety, efficacy, and quality of the FDP to ensure that it meets the necessary standards for human use.
