Pharma D: Doctorate in Pharmacy

A ‘Doctorate In Pharmacy’ is a proffesional degree course introduced in India in year 2008. The course generally is of 6 years of duration( i.e. 5 years of academics and 1 year of intership training duration). Also, for the students completed with the Bachlor Of Pharmacy Post baccaluerate course is there with 3 years of duration (i.e. 2 years of academics and further 1 year of intership). In India, the concept of Pharma D strikes to PCI ( Pharmacy Council of India,  when in year 2003, US government refuses the applications of Indian Pharmacists to get registered under the US pharmacy Authority. Also, students with pharmacy background like to serve the patient by prescribing the medicine etc. as done in the developed countries, but this right of prescribing medicine are always with the doctors with medical degree of MBBS, BHMS etc. Currently in India there are only few states, who works under the pharma D programme, including Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. In case of North India pharma D concept in the Univesities was not that successful as in case of the states of south India, In north india currently there is not any university which is running Pharma D in past years of 2008 – 2011. This may be happened due to lethargic behavior of PCI for taking intrest to spread the course all over India colleges.

New advancements in tablet DDS: Orodispersibles

In recent times, big players of pharmaceutical backgroud focussed toward developing new DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM, to advance their formulations and medicines with respect to their competitors, results of such need of these biggies is developement of Mouth dissolving tablets or called as Orodispersible tablets. These tablets dissolves in the mouth rapidly and continuously. Such formulations are provided with some of excipients with super behaviour like super dispersibles, super disintegrants etc. Benefit of these tablets over conventional tablets is that they rapidly dissolves in mouth with or without water. Due to this, these are more appropriate for pediatric and geriatric patients who have problems with respect to swallowing. Therefore more focuss is been given by the companies to maximize the patient compliance specially in old age patients with the help of these kinds of formulations. Orodispersibles when administered orally rapidly disintegrates and absorbs from mouth thus, eliminates the chances of 1st pass metabolism also. Thus improving the efficacy of the drug.
