Pharmaceutics is a core part of pharmacy course and
is related to the Manufacturing, formulation and dispending of dosage forms or pharmaceutical
products. It needs a complete understanding of Physical chemistry, Microbiology,
Drug regulatory affairs, Biopharmaceutics, chemistry and analytical chemistry. Pharmaceutics
is the core of pharmacy course which provides the knowledge and practice of manufacturing,
storage, preservation, utilization and pharmacokinetics of drug products. It includes
the study of advanced drug delivery systems, nanotechnology based delivery systems
and biotechnology based drug delivery systems also. The department of Pharmaceutics
is involved in imparting knowledge in the various fields of advanced pharmaceutics
and novel drug delivery systems. The department is well equipped with post graduate
research laboratories and an undergraduate laboratory including a well equipped
industrial pharmacy laboratory (Machine room) having all modern equipments essential
for carrying our regular as well as research activities in pharmaceutics.
