Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Abstract:The article considers various issues related to the peculiarities of using a package of polymers in pharmaceutics. The main types of packaging from polymers for pharmaceutical preparations are analyzed. The main requirements for materials for packaging various drugs are defined. Classification of pharmaceutical preparations by the method of their application and packaging is presented. The classification of pharmaceutical preparations according to the dosage type, the type of treatment, the method of their packaging, and general requirements has been developed. It is shown that the proposed classifications became a prerequisite for the selection of eight basic pharmaceutical preparations types and materials for them. The diagrams of the percentage materials ratio in selected pharmaceutical preparations are constructed. The analysis of the corresponding diagram showed that polypropylene (PP) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) are most widely used. The most widespread use of materials for packaging pharmaceuticals has been analyzed the main polymers properties have been identified, the presence of which is necessary for the manufacture of packaging. Keywords:Pharmaceuticals, packaging, preparations, polymers, requirements.
