Being foreword by Professor Abubakr O. Nur, University of Khartoum, this book combines the theoretical background of dosage form degradation and stability problems together with practical procedures to perform various types of stability studies. It describes the probable physical changes, the chemical kinetics of degradation reactions that may take place and the microbiological spoilage. It considers the influence of different factors on the stability of pharmaceuticals and their impact on the shelf life with emphasis on the effect of temperature taking in account the concept of the mean kinetic temperature and its calculation. The international regulatory guidelines together with the dosage form requirements and specifications and how to estimate or predict the shelf life with practical examples. This book is a valuable guide to students where they can found model question and answers, researchers and professionals of industrial pharmacy.
