DEVELOPMENT OF NOVEL INJECTABLE FORMULATION OF CLOPIDOGREL BY QbD APPROACH
Clopidogrel, a poorly water-soluble drug, has been the mainstay of platelet management in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for over a decade. Since Clopidogrel is a prodrug and requires hepatic metabolism for activation, it exhibits a slower onset of action upon oral administration. This time-lag before the onset on the action is highly undesirable for the ...
