Pharmaceutical chemicals are used in the production of pharmaceutical drugs, which treat or prevent illnesses and medical conditions. There is a range of different chemicals that are used to produce pharmaceuticals, including solvents, excipients, catalysts, intermediates, acids and bases. Solvents are volatile organic compounds that provide a liquid medium for pharmaceutical processes while excipients are pharmaceutical-grade substances used to increase the stability, flowability and other properties of pharmaceutical products. Catalysts speed up chemical reactions in pharmaceutical production, intermediates form an essential part of pharmaceutical synthesis and acids and bases are commonly used as reactants in drug making processes. Each of these chemicals have specific rôles to play in pharmaceutical production and must therefore be carefully monitored during the manufacturing process , Dabex chemicals ready to supply
