Assignment: Adult and Pediatric Formulation
A. Pick a drug that helps you fulfill all requirements.
B. Pick a hypothetical formulation. You have to create an adult and a pediatric formulation and describe it in detail.
C. For each formulation please describe the following:
1. In a Table the following should be provided:
a. Composition and excipients and the function of each excipient
b. Assign/create a hypothetical quality standard each the excipients (eg USP, Ph. Eur. or NF)
2. Storage conditions for the drug product and the shelf-life
3. Manufacturing details on the formulation (use flow charts here). You do not need to find the exact manufacturing process. You can propose based on the readings, lectures, and online supportive articles. For instance the process for making capsules or tablets is a pretty generic.
D. Develop an alternate route of administration that is different from what you described above. For instance if you used oral solid dosage for the formulation above then the hypothetical formulation you develop cannot be delivered orally.
1. Describe this alternate route of administration and the formulation for adults.
2. Provide the formulation details requested in point 3 above (you will have to create realistic composition and excipients appropriate for your alternate formulation)
E. Stick to a 4 page limit and provide all your sources: references and the original articles.
