WHITEPAPER - Effect of Excipient Choices on Topical Formulations & Manufacturing Processes
In this whitepaper, we review the effect of excipient choice on the process of manufacturing topical products. The effect of the following excipient types will be discussed: surface active agents, preservatives, polymer choice and skin penetration enhancers.
Considerations include the following:
- Understanding equipment differences and their potential impact on the process
- Extensive sampling throughout each unit operation to understand process parameters and process efficiency
- Performing key tests on the spot to understand required duration for individual process steps
- Designing the testing plan to balance testing resource with knowledge benefit
- Process stretching studies on key process parameters
