WORKING PARTY ON PHARMACEUTICALLY ACCEPTABLE SALTS OF DRUG SUBSTANCES

 

Number: 772/1/94

Title: Pharmaceutically Acceptable Salts of Drug Substances

Coordinator(s): C.G. Wermuth - Access to list of members

Completion Date: 2002 - project completed

Objective:
Preparation of the optimal pharmaceutically acceptable salt form of a new drug substance is a problem frequently faced by medicinal chemists who could greatly benefit from a convenient, comprehensive and authoritative source of information concerning the full range of possibilities including the more unusual salts. Such an information source is not currently available. The objective would be to review the literature and generate a review/critical compilation of information in this subject area which would be definitive and have international stature.

Progress:
At this stage, the WP is currently active and is compiling materials for a publication in 2000.
