BP 405 T.PHARMACOGNOSY AND PHYTOCHEMISTRY I (Theory)

Scope: The course deals with the various physical and physicochemical properties, and principles involved in dosage forms/formulations. Theory and practical components of the subject help the student to get a better insight into various areas of formulation research and development, and stability studies of pharmaceutical dosage forms. 

Objectives: Upon the completion of the course student shall be able to 

1. Understand various physicochemical properties of drug molecules in the designing the dosage forms 

2. Know the principles of chemical kinetics & to use them for stability testing and determination of expiry date of formulations 

3.  Demonstrate use of physicochemical properties in the formulation development and evaluation of dosage forms.
