Changing Needs of OSD Pharma
Oral Solid Dosage is still the most preferred method for developing drugs but the production methods and equipments is undergoing transformation. Products are delivered today as multi-layer, micro and other multi-particulate formulation tablets. To remain competitive in market, new processing equipments will be required to be used in manufacturing for more flexibility to cater for the rising need for increased efficiency in the production processes.
As pharmaceutical manufacturing companies today are competing in a market with increased regulations and price sensitivity, the key is to increase efficiency and reduce downtime in production. The biggest challenge in meeting increasing regulations in OSD formulations is the ageing equipments in old production facilities. These need upgradation to meet the regulatory bodies’ standards.
To enable introducing multiple drug products and increase batch size, companies will need to implement Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC) which flexible, save cost of handling multiple bins, reduce number of bins, handling time and manpower. To meet regulatory standards apart from improving efficiency through Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC) it is also important to reduce segregation, dusting & contamination in the production areas.
