Discover an innovative webinar delving into the use of cyclodextrins in parenteral drugs. Parenteral injection is often the best administration route for some active pharmaceutical ingredients. Developing these formulations is a complex task that requires safe, functional, high-quality ingredients. Cyclodextrins are excipients that enable parenteral drug development by increasing their aqueous solubility, increasing their chemical stability and improving their bioavailability through the formation of drug-cyclodextrin complexes.
Their usage in parenteral drug formulations is frequently preferred over other solubilizing techniques due to their favorable toxicological and pharmacokinetic profiles.
This webinar will demonstrate how to use cyclodextrins in parenteral applications, and how to address various formulation hurdles while highlighting their unique functionality that can propel research and development (R&D) efforts in a new direction.
Join this webinar to gain insights into cyclodextrins in parenteral drugs and the mechanisms of drug-cyclodextrin complex formation.
