Abstract

Drug packaging plays a critical role in the preservation of pharmaceutical products by ensuring the stability, efficacy, and safety of drugs. This article explores the pharmaceutical considerations in drug packaging, including material selection, the impact of environmental factors on drug stability, and regulatory requirements. Furthermore, we delve into recent innovations in packaging technologies and their impact on the stability of drugs during storage and distribution. The article also examines how packaging can enhance or hinder the shelf-life of pharmaceutical products. By understanding these considerations, pharmaceutical manufacturers can develop effective packaging solutions that meet both regulatory standards and consumer safety needs.
