The Particularity of Pharmaceutical Packaging Materials

Security of pharmaceutical packaging materials

(1) Packaging materials for safe drug use, especially packaging materials that are in direct contact with drugs, play a decisive role in the stability of drugs. Unsuitable materials cause the migration of active drug ingredients, adsorption or even chemical reactions, drug efficacy failure, or even poisoning.

(2) Selection of packaging materials: The selection of suitable packaging materials to protect the integrity of the quality of the compressed drug is mainly to protect the drug from environmental conditions and the non-reaction of the drug. The drug should not be polluted and non-toxic to meet the requirements of general high-speed packaging machines.

(3) Control of packaging materials: Before packaging materials enter the packaging process, an appropriate system must be established to ensure normal acceptance, testing and storage, and scientific and reasonable packaging forms to ensure safe and effective drug play.

In addition to meeting the general performance of packaging materials, pharmaceutical packaging materials must also meet special requirements such as safety and applicability.


Suitability of pharmaceutical packaging materials

(1) Packaging of solid preparations

Tablets and capsules are now trending in plastic, foil, and foil packs. The commonly used materials are PA/AL/PVC or PET/AL/PET, with a thickness of about 45-50 microns.

Some medicines that need to be protected from light are packaged in aluminum foil. such as vitamin b1.

(2) Masks, cotton swab packaging bags

The commonly used materials are Paper/PE or PET/PE. Ethylene oxide dialysis paper is used to facilitate sterilization. Special glue is used for edge sealing. Traditional heat sealing methods are not used to prevent packaging debris from contaminating medical equipment.

(3) Packaging of injections and large infusions

The high-barrier infusion bag is usually made of transparent material to facilitate the observation of liquid usage. The large infusion is developing from the original glass bottle to the disposable polypropylene plastic packaging. Generally, silica PET or alumina PET is used.

Flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) bags are used as bulk infusion packaging in hospital preparation rooms.

The above are the packaging methods of some commonly used drugs. If you need more information, please contact us.

WHAT KIND OF CONFIGURATION DOES THE SALAD DRESSING EMULSIFYING MACHINE NEED?

  What are the Styles of Emulsifying Machines for the Production of Salad Sauce? YeKeey  salad dressing emulsifying machine  is generally composed of two types of raw materials, water, and oil phase, through the action of a  high-speed shearing homogenizer , so that the two-phase materials can be rapidly fused. In theory, the equipment that can prepare salad dressing is mainly in YeKeey products. There are 3 series: 1. ZJR Series Vacuum Homogeneous Emulsifier Features:  The main body is composed of a frame scraper, two-way stirring, a  high-speed homogenizer,  and an  emulsifying tank . It can be equipped with a pre-treatment water and oil pot. This unit has the characteristics of easy operation, stable performance, good homogeneity, high production efficiency, convenient cleaning, reasonable structure, less floor space, and a high degree of automation. 2.  MC Series External Circulation Emulsifier Features:  The external circu...

What equipment is used to produce the recombinant human interferon alpha-2B gel ?

Recombinant human interferon alpha-2B gel is a transparent hydrogel with good effect. This gel is uniform and transparent in texture. Recombinant human interferon alpha-2B is an immunomodulatory agent, which has the effect of enhancing the antiviral ability of the human body, and the clinical applications are very extensive. Recently, YeKeey went to an old customer’s company of a listed pharmaceutical company in Anhui to provide after-sales technical services for aseptic vacuum emulsifier and other equipment. The customer is producing this recombinant human interferon alpha-2B gel product. This product produced by the customer has been used in many tertiary hospitals in China. Now let’s take a look at the recombinant human interferon alpha-2B gel production equipment. The client’s pharmaceutical company, which is a high-technology enterprise, was founded in 1994 and is a modern listed enterprise integrating production, scientific research, and sales. The recombinant human interferon p...

Noise-Induced Hearing Loss - Prevention and Treatment

Hearing loss is something that can be exceptionally challenging to deal with. If individuals around you are uninformed that you have a hearing loss, it can make it harder to communicate as well as has the power to impact every part of your life. Noise-induced hearing loss is no different. Root Causes Of Noise-Induced Hearing Loss Noise-induced hearing loss is caused by direct exposure to harmful degrees of audio. It can either be noises that are as well loud, also close, or experienced for extended. In the noise-induced hearing loss, the damages occur in the internal ear where there are sensitive structures that transform sound into signals that take a trip to the brain to understand what you listen to. Common areas that noise-induced hearing loss occurs would be manufacturing facilities or workshops where the team is revealed to high degrees of noise for a prolonged amount of times or being exposed to the noise of an explosion, fireworks, or a loud motorcycle, for example. ...
