Physical chemistry is a compulsory paper offered to all the students of pharmacy. There is a dearth of good books that exclusively cover the syllabi of physical chemistry offered to pharmacy courses. Pharmaceutical Physical Chemistry: Theory and Practices has been designed considering their requirements laid down by AICTE and other premier institutes/universities. Apart from the theory 20 most common laboratory experiments have been included to make this book a unique offering to the students of pharmacy.

A core subject in pharmaceutics, physical pharmacy is taught in the initial semesters of B. Pharm. The methodical knowledge of the subject is required, and is essential, to understand the principles pertaining to design and development of drug and drug products. Theory and Practice of Physical Pharmacy is unique as it fulfils the twin requirements of physical pharmacy students: the authentic text on theoretical concepts and its application including illustrative exercises in the form of practicals. Covers all the topics included in various existing syllabi of physical pharmacy Provides an integrated understanding of theory and practical applications associated with physicochemical concepts Explore the latest developments in the field of pharmaceutics Reviews the relevance of physicochemical principles in the design of dosage form Ensures proper recapitulation through sufficient end-of-chapter questions Provides valuable learning tool in the form of multiple choice questions Multiple choice questions section especially useful for GPAT aspirants

The present book is a culmination of very honest and sincere efforts, keeping in view the level and aspiration of pharmacy students at the undergraduate level. The book includes simple language, neat and clean diagram, descriptive figures, flow charts, questions, multiple choice questions easy to understand by students All efforts have been made to make the book student friendly. This book is designed to impart basic knowledge on the chemical structure, storage conditions and medicinal uses of organic and inorganic chemical substances used as drugs and pharmaceuticals. It will discuss the following aspects of the chemical substances used as drugs and pharmaceuticals for various disease conditions. The chemical classification, chemical name, chemical structure, pharmacological uses, doses, stability and storage conditions of different types of formulations/dosage form available and their brand names. We have tried to make things simpler and easily understandable to our students, for whom this book has been written. Surely, our esteemed friends, while patronizing this book for their class room instruction, will also enjoy it. We honestly feel everyone will find the book refreshingly different and acceptable. Many valuable suggestions from esteemed colleagues and friends from various colleges have been given due weightage in the test.

This book caters to the basic need of the pharmacy graduates studying physical and analytical chemistry, a subject taught in all the four years. This book covers the pharmaceutical aspect and applications of topics in pharmacy, use of basic physical chemistry concepts to pharmaceutical science, e.g., calculation of pH of drug solutions, determination of shelf life of drugs, water content in drug substances, relationship of partition coefficient with drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, etc. Considering the target audience, i.e., undergraduate student, the language of the book has been kept simple and lucid so that the students do not find difficulty in understanding the basic concepts of the subject. This book is also covering syllabus of two subjects, viz. physical chemistry and analytical chemistry so that students need not to search for separate books for different topics/chapters. The book also includes solved problems to help understand the concepts better.

This Fourth Edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to take account of international developments in pharaceutical chemistry and to maintain the position of Practical Pharmaceutical Chemistry as the leading University textbook in the field of pharaceutical analysis and quality control. Part 2 deals with physical techniques of analysis for more advanced courses. It gives a broad coverage of the most widely used techniques in quantative chromatography. The treatmentof spectroscopy and radiopharmaceuticals has also been increased. Thre are additional chapters on the contribution and role of physical methods of analysis in the various stages of drug development; and a series of workshop-style exercises, illustrating the application of spectroscopic techniques in structural elucidation and verification of identity. Users of the two volumes will welcome the internationalisation of the text, with examples based on drugs and dosage forms that are widespread and in commun use in human medicine in Britain, continental Europe and North America. Additionally there is some reference to veterinary pharmaceuticals where they provide appropriate examples.

The Present Compendium On Advanced Practical Medicinal Chemistry Is Designed Specifically To Serve As A Text-Cum-Reference Book Not Only Intended For The Advanced Undergraduate And Graduate Students Of Pharmacy Specializing In Pharmaceutical Chemistry But Also For The Bulk-Drug Industrial Researchers And Academics Who Work Intimately With Medicinal Compounds. It Mainly Comprises Of Four Comprehensive Chapters. First Chapter Is Entirely Devoted To Safety In Chemical Laboratory, Which Is An Absolute Must For Each Medicinal Chemist. Second Chapter Is On Drug Synthesis And Concentrates On Three Vital Aspects, Namely : Conceptualization Of A Synthesis, Reaction Variants, And Stereochemistry. Third Chapter Exclusively Deals With Performing The Reactions And Entails The Wide Range Of Latest Laboratory Techniques Used In A Good Chemical Laboratory To Facilitate Synthesis Of Drugs.Fourth Chapter Is Particularly Focused And Earmarked To Synthesis Of Medicinal Compounds, And Essentially Include Various Cardinal Aspects, Such As :Types Of Chemical Reactions, Organic Name Reactions (Onrs), And Selected Medicinal Compounds. A Galaxy Of Eighty Carefully Chosen Medicinal Compounds Have Been Presented In Anoriginal-Unique-Style Comprising Of : Chemical Structure-Synonym (S)/Chemical Name(S)-Theory-Chemicals Required-Procedure-Precautions- Recrystallizatio-Theoretical Yield/Practical Yield-Physical Parameters-Uses, And -Questions For Viva-Voce.It Is Hoped That Advanced Practical Medicinal Chemistry Would Certainly Help To Bridge Existing Gap And Fill Up The Long Needed Vacuum In The Synthesis Of Drugs In Pharmaceutical Chemistry Departments, Academics And Bulk-Drug Industries, And May Provide The Basis For Meaningful Productive Group Discussions Of Synthetic Problems On A Broader Perspective.

Discusses the study of inorganic drugs based on pharmacological classification, laying emphasis on knowledge of chemical properties, to help readers understand the rationale behind the tests for identity as well as storage conditions.It is divided into two sections. Section A discusses the theory: various properties and uses of inorganic compounds, major intra- and extracellular electrolytes, radiopharmaceuticals and contrast media, inorganic official compounds of iron, iodine and calcium, quality control of drugs and pharmaceuticals, and identification tests for cations and anions. Section B covers practical tests. The book will serve as a useful text for students at the diploma level in pharmacy as it covers all the topics and bare essentials required under the syllabus.

Martin's Physical Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences is considered the most comprehensive text available on the physical, chemical, and biological principles that underlie pharmacology. This 7th Edition puts a stronger focus on the most essential, practical knowledge, and is updated to reflect the broadening scope and diversity of the pharmaceutical sciences. Whether you're a student, teacher, researcher, or industrial pharmaceutical scientist, this respected textbook and reference will help you apply the elements of biology, physics, and chemistry in your work and study. Master the latest knowledge with brand-new chapters on Excipients and Compounding; revised and expanded coverage of interpretive tools, ionic equilibria, biopharmaceutics, diffusion, drug release and dissolution, and drug delivery systems and drug product design; a renewed focus on physical chemistry; and much more.
