Every clinical trial chooses the best clinical research course of action to collect as much data as possible. Before any of these medications reach the patients, it has to undergo our clinical trial phases.
  Clinical trials are studies performed for research in people who have an objective at evaluating a surgical, medical, or behavioral intervention. Clinical Trials are the primary method of researchers to determine whether a new treatment or drug, or diet is safe and effective in human beings. Clinical research requires trials conducted to collect information regarding the efficiency and safety of a new drug, device, or treatment.  These are tested on certain individuals, and this process is termed clinical trial recruitment. The main aim of patient recruitment is to raise awa…
Ionic liquids, as an exciting class of compounds that can circumvent the above problems, are being ignored. Half of the drugs currently on the market are salts linked together by ionic bonds.
In drug development and production, solid active pharmaceutical ingredients, which are usually made into powders or tablets, are a preferred choice compared with liquid active pharmaceutical ingredients. If solid active ingredients are to be finally marketed, the issue of solubility must be solved. 40-70% of drug development failures are due to poor solubility. This is because drugs of poor solubility cannot be well-absorbed by the body. Ionic liquids, as an exciting class of compounds that can circumvent the above problems, are being ignored. Half of the drugs currently on the…
