Study Notes

PF1010 Module Objective

  • This module introduces the physicochemical principles of pharmaceutical systems, including formulations of APIs and excipients, drug binding to receptors, enzyme binding to substrates, and cellular structures.

Physicochemical Principles

  • These principles involve aspects of chemistry, physics, and physical chemistry that influence the structure, stability, and function of pharmaceutical systems.

Thermodynamics and Pharmaceutical Systems

  • Pharmaceutical systems consist of multiple phases and components governed by thermodynamics and process equilibria.
  • Examples of equilibrium processes include drug binding to receptors or enzymes, biochemical reactions in metabolism, manufacturing of APIs, and formulation processes.
  • Many measures of pharmacological activity rely on equilibrium constants.

Components and Phases in Pharmaceutical Systems

  • System: a defined part of the physical world under study.
  • Surroundings: the rest of the physical world that is affected by changes in the system.
  • Phase: a homogenous portion of physical material bounded by interfaces.
  • Component: a chemical ingredient of the system.

Equilibrium in Pharmaceutical Systems

  • Pharmaceutical systems can have many components and phases, like APIs, excipients, solid phases, liquids, and gases.
  • Components may be partitioned between different phases.
  • The system reaches a dynamic equilibrium where the overall amounts of components remain constant, but the processes continue in both directions.

Law of Mass Action and Equilibrium Constants

  • The law of mass action describes the relationship between the rate of a chemical reaction and the concentrations of reactants and products.
  • The equilibrium constant (Keq) quantifies the relative amounts of reactants and products at equilibrium.
  • The value of Keq depends on the stoichiometries of the reactants and products.

Examples of Pharmaceutical Processes and Equilibria

  • Drug Partitioning: Drugs can partition between aqueous and lipid mediums, with a partition coefficient (P) describing the equilibrium.
  • Biochemical Reactions: Reactions like the isomerization of G3P to DHAP have equilibrium constants that can be calculated from the concentrations of reactants and products.

Structure and Stability of Pharmaceutical Systems

  • Key issues in pharmaceutical systems are the structure and stability of components, including APIs, excipients, and biomolecules.
  • The structure and stability of pharmaceutical systems are crucial for their efficacy and safety.
