Drug Product Modeling, Process, and Design

The pharmaceutical industry has traditionally focused heavily on research and development, but with fewer marketable drugs being discovered, there has been a shift to the optimization of existing production processes. Chemical engineers are uniquely positioned to help address these needs in part derived from their ability to predict using mathematical models and their understanding of equipment and manufacturability. This book deals with various unique elements in the drug development process within chemical engineering science and pharmaceutical R&D. It provides a high‐level overview of bringing a drug to market and highlight industry trends, current challenges, and how chemical engineering skills are an exquisite match to address those challenges. This book is therefore intended to cover many important concepts and applications of chemical engineering science that are particularly important to the Pharmaceutical Industry.
