Description for Pharmaceutical Process Chemistry for Synthesis: Rethinking the Routes to Scale-Up
Hardcover. Two global forces are at odds today: the push for "greener" processes and the push for lower drug prices. Offering detailed discussions of the published process chemistry of the ten top-selling small molecule drugs in the US in 2007, this book includes information which is usually carefully protected by the current and future manufacturers. Num Pages: 376 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TDCW. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 281 x 221 x 25. Weight in Grams: 1158.
There is a need to explain that generic versions of a drug may not be manufactured by the same process as brand-name drugs and that the different processes may have dramatically different environmental impacts. Two global forces are at odds today—the push for "greener" processes and the push for lower drug prices. This book brings this conflict into sharp focus by discussing in detail the published process chemistry for top-selling small molecule drugs.
