Medicines are perhaps the greatest weapons of the mankind to fight diseases and death, but are double edged weapons. They help recovering from illness and restoring health if used properly; but can harm if not used appropriately, even causing life threatening situations including death. Inappropriate medicine use is unnecessary wastage of resources. Medicines have helped increasing life expectancy but in some situations they have harmed too. The antibiotics are becoming increasingly ineffective due resistance developed by random use. The book provides guidance on using medicines appropriately in a simple and easily understandable language. The book intends to empower the readers with skill and knowledge to make informed decisions about how to use medicines (including when not to use them) and get the maximum benefit. It helps to understand the importance of medicines inindividual's health. The second edition of the book is updated with the new information on medicines as available. Many new themes are introduced with value addition like cartoons. It is a comprehensive medicine user guide for common public. A must for every one!

Quality by design (QbD) is extensively used tool in formulation and development. QbD is a method of choice in product development for robust and quality product incorporating continuous improvement. The objective of the book is to study the implementation of QbD and wide-ranging QbD based product development template for different formulations and analytical procedures. The way QbD is implemented in Pharmaceutical Industry, Academicians/ Institutes are way behind in this competition. The reason being, concepts of QbD are poorly explored byPharma Researchers due to nonexistence of expertise and resources. Researchers tend to adapt moderately the principles of QbD due to inadequate understanding of QbD principles. The use of QbD in formulation development will be advantageous to young researchers and academics.
