A PRACTICAL HANDBOOK OF PHYSICAL PHARMACEUTICS I

Pharmacy Council of India (PCI) setup for co-ordinating the standards of technical education has done a commendable job by bringing about a model syllabus for the B. Pharm. course.Physical Pharmacy is the process of applying physics and chemistry to the study of pharmaceutics. Physical pharmacy integrates knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry and applies them to the pharmaceutical dosage form development. It focuses on the theories behind the phenomena needed for dosage form design. It has enable the pharmacist to make rational decisions on scientific basis concerning the art and technology of solutions, suspensions, emulsions, colloids, etc. It provides the basis for understanding the chemical and physical phenomena that govern the in-vivo and in-vitro actions of pharmaceutical products.
