FIXED DOSE COMBINATION AND DISEASE MANAGEMENT
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 11
Abstract
Fixed dose combinations (FDCs) are combinations of two or more active drugs in a single dosage form. It is the current hot topic of deliberations in the pharmaceutical industry, drug regulatory agency, and the pharmaceutical trade. Surprisingly, it is not so among the doctors who prescribe the medicines or the patients who consume. Basically, from one point of view it increases patient compliance, but from other point of view there are chances of consuming medicines, more than what is required. A relook and rationalization may be required in the use of combination product and this is the basis on which this article has been developed.
