Abstract
The effectiveness of pharmaceutical drugs depends not only on their active components and manufacturing processes, but also on the role played by pharmaceutical excipients. The traditional definition of excipients as inactive and cost-effective substances has evolved significantly. They are now recognized as essential elements of drug formulations, constituting 80–90% of the final product. The rapid advancements in delivery systems, along with scientific, regulatory, financial and technological developments in biopharmaceutics, have generated renewed interest in the use and functionality of excipients, especially in solid dosage forms. This review focuses on the categorization of excipients according to the International Pharmaceutical Excipient Council (IPEC) and the establishment of guidelines for evaluating the safety of a new proposed excipient.
