Product Information

G. Taylor, BPharm PhD FRPharmS, Professor of Clinical Pharmaceutics, UCL School of Pharmacy, London, UK and Michael E. I bought this book for my class in Pharmaceutical Technology and with a strong background in Physical Chemistry I found this book very good for the transition from Physical Chemistry to Physical Pharmacy. Pharmaceutics is one of the most diverse subject areas in pharmaceutical science and an understanding of it is vital for all pharmacists and scientists involved in converting drugs to medicines that can be safely delivered to a patient. The content has been extensively revised and updated, and many new subjects introduced, because pharmaceutics continually changes, particularly in the ways that drug products are designed, manufactured and delivered to patients.

The book provides pharmacy and pharmaceutical science students with the latest information on all aspects of pharmaceutics.

An understanding of pharmaceutics is therefore vital for all pharmacists and those pharmaceutical scientists who are involved with converting a drug or a potential drug into a medicine that can be delivered safely, effectively and conveniently to the patient. It encompasses design of drugs, their manufacture and the elimination of micro-organisms from the products.

For all the pharmacy students out there part of your pharmacy degree will be to study formulation design and pharmaceutics.Professor Aulton's Pharmaceutics has become established as the clearest, most comprehensive textbook on this subject. It it a bit long-winded and sometimes difficult to understand, but maybe it is because i dislike pharmaceutics!
