Aulton's Pharmaceutics. The Design and Manufacture of Medicines
5th edition

Pharmaceutics is one of the most diverse subject areas in all of pharmaceutical science. It is concerned with the scientific and technological aspects of the design and manufacture of dosage forms or medicines. An understanding of pharmaceutics is therefore essential for all pharmacists and those pharmaceutical scientists who are involved with converting a drug or a potential drug into a high quality medicine that can be delivered safely, effectively and conveniently to the patient.
