In today’s increasingly complex drug delivery and device development landscape, a reliable contract manufacturing partner can become a distinct competitive advantage for pharmaceutical and device companies. West brings together the right combination of insights and infrastructure to help our customers reduce costs, mitigate risk and accelerate path to market.
Bringing a new drug delivery or medical device to market can present many challenges. An increasingly complex pipeline of products often requires specialized manufacturing facilities, equipment and operational expertise. The costs associated with acquiring these manufacturing capabilities can be prohibitive for smaller companies, while larger companies seek to collaborate with external partners who can offer a depth of knowledge and expertise that they lack in-house. As a result, many industry players consider outsourcing all or some parts of their commercialization efforts to contract service providers to improve operational effectiveness, reduce costs and increase speed-to-market.

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.
