Evaluating the influence of packaging material sorption on the release profiles of drug products
The Hidden Factor Affecting Your Drug Products Efficacy Understanding the Impact of Packaging Material Sorption
As a pharmaceutical company, you invest significant resources into developing effective drug products that provide optimal therapeutic outcomes for patients. However, there is an often-overlooked aspect of product development that can significantly impact your products performance packaging material sorption. In this article, we will delve into the importance of evaluating the influence of packaging material sorption on the release profiles of drug products and how our laboratory services at Eurolab can help you ensure your products meet regulatory requirements and deliver desired results.
What is Packaging Material Sorption?
Packaging material sorption refers to the absorption or adsorption of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) by the packaging materials used in the storage, transportation, and dispensing of drug products. This phenomenon can lead to variations in the concentration of APIs, affecting the products release profile and ultimately its efficacy.
Why is Evaluating Packaging Material Sorption Crucial?
The influence of packaging material sorption on drug product performance cannot be overstated. The consequences of neglecting this factor can include
Inconsistent product quality Variations in API concentrations due to sorption can result in inconsistent product quality, compromising patient safety and efficacy.
Regulatory non-compliance Failure to meet regulatory requirements for packaging material selection and testing can lead to costly recalls, fines, and damage to your companys reputation.
Loss of market share Inadequate packaging material selection can impact product stability, shelf life, and overall performance, potentially leading to loss of market share and revenue.
