Many of the excipients we use today have been around for more than fifty years. In many cases, the specifications for those excipients have not changed much over the years, either. During that time, we have not really thought about what happens when our existing excipients, and/or their specifications, are no longer able to provide us with the necessary performance to allow effective medicines to be formulated, developed and manufactured on a routine basis. Things are changing!
