2- Aims (Module purpose)
The objective of this course is to help student to understand the principles of the design of certain dosage forms, notably semisolid and aerosol dosage form and advanced drug delivery systems. This course will also provide the students with the basic principles of drug legislations and the theories of
chemical kinetics, knowing how to apply the basic principles of physical pharmacy to get optimum formulations.

A1. Recognize the principles of physics, pharmaceutical calculations, biostatistical analysis, drug promotion, sales, marketing, business administration, accounting and pharmacoeconomics.
A2. Discuss the basic principles of language, behavioral and social sciences besides regulatory affairs, pharmacy laws and ethics of health care and pharmacy profession.
A4. Investigate the general rules of laboratory safety including proper and safe handling of various chemicals (i.e. radio- labeled, toxic agents and biological specimens) and safe disposal procedures of chemical and biological wastes.
A8. Describe principles of physical, organic, inorganic and medicinal chemistry including physichochemical properties, metabolism, preparation procedures, mode of action, assay and structure activity relationship of various drugs.
A9. Recognize principles of dispensing, storage, distribution of different pharmaceutical dosage forms including novel drug delivery systems.
A12. Describe the principles of qualitative and quantitative analysis of raw materials, pharmaceutical and natural products according to pharmacopoeial methods
