Polymeric container systems are not new to the pharmaceutical industry, and their benefits in terms of break resistance, cosmetic quality and dimensional precision have been recognized by many companies around the world who have chosen to use a polymer vial or syringe.
<p>Demand is increasing for Daikyo’s sterile, ready to use closure components, known as Daikyo RUV® (Ready to Use Validated) components. Against that background, Daikyo has significantly expanded its packaging component sterilization operations to meet the needs of smaller customers as well as large scale pharmaceutical companies. By adopting an approach that replicates its existing footprint, Daikyo has been able to manage validation risks effectively, while meeting an ambitious timeline for bringing on new autoclave capacity. The result of this expansion is a state-of-the-art facility that triples the company’s previous sterilization capacity.</p>

Exposure to light is a concern with numerous medications due to the potential for photodegradation or other chemical reactions during manufacturing, storage, and administration<sup>(1)</sup>. This may result in potency loss, altered efficacy and adverse biological effects. The sensitivity of a drug to a distinct spectral region of light may vary with its chemical structure, photoreactivity, and nature of the dosage form. The photochemical behavior of a drug provides guidance for handling, packaging, and labeling of drug products. The use of the appropriate containers and packaging material can protect the products from the deleterious effects of light.
The global injectable drug market sees an ever-increasing adoption of high-value biologic drug products. More than half of today’s 20 top selling injectables are biologics, and many of them are delivered in a prefilled syringe. Even though glass syringes are predominantly used for primary containment of parenterals, the (bio)pharmaceutical industry continues to cope with certain limitations associated with glass prefilled systems.
