Pharmaceutical Technology

 

Foster Pharma is a development and manufacturing partner for large, small, and start-up companies. Our Pharmaceutical Material Technologies are polymeric materials modified to include a functional active ingredient or pharmaceutical excipient to increase solubility and bioavailability, thus achieving greater therapeutic results.

Foster’s active pharmaceutical melt extrusion capability includes R&D, process development, production scale up, and production of the final blended product with pre and post blending options to achieve optimal results. Applications include controlled release of drugs, taste masking, targeted delivery, patient-specific solutions, therapeutic drug delivery devices, adulteration-proofing, ingestible substrates, drug capsules, bial products, anti-counterfeiting measures, as well as other technologies.

Our experience includes making supplies for human clinical trials (Phase I, II, and III), making samples under cGMP conditions for bio-equivalency studies, and technology transfer including process design, process D.O.E., and scale up and production of validation batches.

 

We are a full-service material solutions company serving the pharmaceutical delivery, medical device, and biotechnology companies with extremely precise polymer technologies (the ability to develop and manufacture polymer compounds for reliable use as temporary or permanent implants in the human body without complication). Our solutions include a comprehensive range of biomedical materials, material development support, and supply chain management.

Our unique range of material solutions and highly-disciplined production resources also serve companies outside the life sciences market. These companies are engaged in the design, development and manufacturing of highly-specialized products that require precision materials and volumes similar to the demands of companies in the life sciences market. Foster Corporation, our parent company, has provided materials solutions since 1989 to medical device companies developing and manufacturing polymer compounds for reliable use as catheters and temporary or permanent implants.
