The Handbook of Pharmaceutical Additives, Third Edition has been extensively updated from the previous edition, which was published in 2002. It describes more than 5300 trade name products and 4000 generic chemicals and materials, available from worldwide manufacturers, that function as pharmaceutical additives. Pharmaceutical additives are defined in this reference as secondary ingredients present in both prescription and over-the-counter drug formulations and contributing in one or more of the following ways: Improving consumption ease of the dosage form by masking unpleasant odor, improving palatibility or appearance of the active ingredient. Enabling or enhancing the delivery of the drug or medicine that is available in a variety of dosage forms (i.e., oral; topical, ophthalmic, and otic; suppositories; injectables; inhalants) and thus improving its efficacy, control of bioavailability, uniformity, and/or flow characteristics Increasing the stability of active ingredients Acting as a filler or diluent so that an adequate amount of material is available to properly fill a dosage form Acting as an antimicrobial or antioxidant to extend the shelf life of the active ingredient Thus, the definition of pharmaceutical additives for the purpose of this work encompasses excipients, synergists, or chemicals that substantively contribute to the effectiveness of the active ingredient. Entries for both trade names and chemicals contain extensive information gathered from worldwide manufacturers, distributors, trade journals, government documents, and other reference sources. The Handbook of Pharmaceutical Additives, Third Edition centralizes and integrates information on these chemicals and materials thereby serving as an essential guide to product managers, formulation scientists, quality controllers, ingredient chemists, pharmacists, physicians, and consumers.
