Why study at TECH?
The Postgraduate diploma in Elaboration of Individualized Oral Medicines contains the most complete and up to date scientific program on the market"
Industrialized medicine has been a breakthrough in current therapeutics, since many patients have found a remedy for their illnesses.
However, this industrialized drug does not cover all therapeutic needs. For various reasons, there are therapeutic gaps that only the Individualized Medicine can fill.
The Master Formulation or, nowadays, "individualized medicine" is the essence of the pharmaceutical profession. It has been the starting point of human medicine therapeutics, when patient care was individualized.
The master formula, understood as the medicine intended for an individualized patient, prepared by or under the direction of a pharmacist, to expressly comply with a detailed medical prescription of the medicinal substances it includes, requires that the professional activity be adjusted to strict and faithfully reproducible procedural guidelines. In this sense, pharmacists need to be updated and promote continuous training in the knowledge and compliance with the standards for the correct preparation and quality control of master formulas in order to achieve the required level of quality.
The objective of this program is to train pharmacists in a discipline unique and exclusive to their profession, training professionals who can respond to therapeutic gaps with the formulation of an individualized drug with the quality and efficacy of an industrialized drug.
This Postgraduate diploma may be the best investment you can make in the selection of a refresher program for two reasons: in addition to updating your knowledge in the elaboration and development of individualized drugs of oraladministration, you will obtain a Postgraduate diploma from TECH Global University"

A unique, key, and decisive training experience to boost your professional development”
Postgraduate Diploma in Elaboration of Individualized Oral Medicines
The pharmaceutical industry is one of the largest sectors worldwide, its productivity has increased to such an extent that, at present, it generates revenues of about 1.3 trillion dollars. Thanks to its massive production, nowadays it is possible to treat different conditions through the use of singularized drugs (pills, topical creams and liquids). Being an area in constant growth that demands highly trained professionals, TECH Global University developed a Postgraduate Diploma in Elaboration of Individualized Oral Medicines, focused on the correct development of magistral formulas and officinal preparations according to the current regulations and legislation for the execution of these procedures. The main objective of this program is to train pharmacists in a discipline that requires unique skills to successfully develop prescriptions. In the syllabus of this program taught in virtual mode, our students will find key topics ranging from the principles of biopharmacy and clinical pharmacokinetics, to the management of chemical, therapeutic and biological equivalence of a drug. In addition, they will learn the procedural guidelines used for the preparation and quality control of these formulas, which involves knowledge of medical prescription to detail the medicinal substances included.
Specialize in developing individualized oral medications
Throughout 400 hours of preparation at the largest Faculty of Pharmacy, you will strengthen your knowledge by knowing and defining the factors that influence the realization of pharmaceutical forms. You will specialize in designing magistral formulas and officinal preparations in doses indicated for therapeutic treatments in both pediatric and geriatric populations. In addition, you will learn about different aspects that vary from the active ingredients for each of the pharmaceutical prescriptions, the handling of the utilaje and measurement systems; to the elaboration of oral solutions (suspensions and syrups) based on their respective quality control. Next, you will learn about solubility and factors involved in the process of liquid preparations (filtration systems, microfiltration, ultrafiltration), the basic principles of packaging, the registration of raw materials and the application of parenteral or delayed parenteral aqueous solutions. From this, you will be able to prepare explanatory reports describing the indications of each pharmaceutical prescription, in order to analyze the physiological factors influencing the gastrointestinal absorption of each formulation.
