G.; Michael, Aulton E. Abstract: Aulton’s Pharmaceutics, Sixth Edition, is a comprehensive and authoritative textbook that presents the scientific principles and practical applications involved in the design, formulation, and manufacture of pharmaceutical dosage forms. Widely regarded as a core text in pharmaceutics, it provides an integrated approach to understanding how medicines are developed from active drug substances into safe, effective, and patient-acceptable products. The book covers fundamental aspects of pharmaceutics, including physicochemical properties of drugs, dissolution and solubility, rheology, particle science, and pharmaceutical microbiology. It further explores biopharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics, emphasizing drug absorption, bioavailability, and dosage regimen design. A major focus is placed on the formulation and manufacturing of a wide range of dosage forms such as tablets, capsules, suspensions, emulsions, parenterals, and novel drug delivery systems including transdermal, pulmonary, and nanomedicine-based approaches. The text also addresses preformulation studies, stability testing, sterilization, packaging, and regulatory considerations, reflecting current practices and advances in pharmaceutical technology. Overall, the sixth edition serves as a complete guide to modern pharmaceutics, combining foundational science with real-world pharmaceutical applications. It is an essential resource for pharmacy students, researchers, and professionals involved in drug development, manufacturing, and quality assurance.
