Pharmaceutics Department

Pharmaceutics is concerned with the strategies by which biologically active compounds are presented to the body so as to elicit an optimal response. The department of Pharmaceutics & Pharmaceutical Technology offers the students the opportunity to learn basic principles of pharmaceutics up to the level of novel drug delivery systems. This laboratory provides good facilities for conduct experiments based on Physical pharmacy and Dispensing pharmacy. In the laboratory tech to prepare various dispensing formulation like Tablet, Creams, lotions, Ointments, Suppositories, Gels, Creams, Syrups, Tinctures, liniments etc.

The Department has various instruments such as: Rotary tablet machine, Tablet coating machine, Dissolution apparatus, Distillation Unit, Sieve Shaker, Tablet evaluating equipments, Ampoule filling and sealing machine, Capsule filling machine, BOD incubator, Autoclave, Cooling Centrifuge, Fluid bed drier, Brooke Field Viscometer etc.

Department of Pharmacy Practice

Department of Pharmacy Practice is to demonstrate excellence through performance in the areas of discovery, learning, and engagement. It is introduced to improve clinical and hospital pharmacy services in India and it is the only pharmacy service which is in direct contact with the patient healthcare system and authorized to take critical decisions in in-patient prescription. The curriculum includes various specialized areas like clinical pharmacy, hospital and community pharmacy, pharmacotherapeutics, pharmacoepidemiology, pharmacoeconomics, clinical research to name a few. After completion of this course, students can work in the areas of clinical pharmacy, hospital pharmacy, patient safety, medical writing, drug information services, public health, academic clinical pharmacy, and clinical research.
