 Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API)

API stands for "Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient," is the part of a drug that produces the intended pharmacological effect and is responsible for the therapeutic activity of a medication.

Simply, the API is the chemical substance that is responsible for treating a specific condition or disease. For example, in a painkiller medication, the API would be the chemical that actually reduces pain.

Pharmaceutical companies use APIs to create medications, which are then formulated into different dosage forms, such as tablets, capsules, injections, or creams. The APIs used in medications are subject to strict quality standards and regulatory requirements, ensuring that they are safe and effective for human use.

Finished drug product (FDP)

 A finished drug product (FDP) is a medication that has completed the manufacturing process and is ready to be dispensed to patients.A finished drug product typically consists of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), which is the part of the medication that produces the intended pharmacological effect, as well as other inactive ingredients, which may include fillers, binders, and coatings.

The formulation of an FDP can vary depending on the intended route of administration, dosage strength, and other factors. FDPs can be available in different dosage forms, such as tablets, capsules, injections, or creams, and can be marketed under different brand names by different pharmaceutical companies.

Before a finished drug product can be marketed and sold to patients, it must undergo extensive testing and regulatory approval by government agencies, such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or the European Medicines Agency (EMA). These agencies evaluate the safety, efficacy, and quality of the FDP to ensure that it meets the necessary standards for human use.

Lori Ann Larocco at CNBC:

Billions in trade came to a screeching halt at U.S. East Coast and Gulf Coast ports after members of the International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) began walking off the job after 12:01 a.m. ET on October 1. The ILA is North America’s largest longshoremen’s union, with roughly 50,000 of its 85,000 members making good on the threat to strike at 14 major ports subject to a just-expired master contract with the United States Maritime Alliance (USMX), and picketing workers beginning to appear at ports. The union and port ownership group failed to reach agreement by midnight on a new contract in a protracted battle over wage increases and use of automation. In a last-ditch effort on Monday to avert a strike that will cause significant harm to the U.S. economy if it is lengthy — at least hundreds of millions of dollars a day at the largest ports like New York/New Jersey — the USMX offered a nearly 50% wage hike over six years, but that was rejected by the ILA, according to a source close to the negotiations. The port ownership group said it hoped the offer would lead to a resumption of collective bargaining.

The 14 ports where preparations for a strike have been underway are Boston, New York/New Jersey, Philadelphia, Wilmington, North Carolina, Baltimore, Norfolk, Charleston, Savannah, Jacksonville, Tampa, Miami, New Orleans, Mobile, and Houston. New York Governor Kathy Hochul said in a statement issued shortly after midnight that “the first large-scale eastern dockworker strike in 47 years began at ports from Maine to Texas, including at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. In preparation for this moment, New York has been working around the clock to ensure that our grocery stores and medical facilities have the essential products they need.” Rhetoric from ILA leadership has been aggressive in the weeks leading up to the strike, with ILA president Harold Daggett, who was a union member the last time it went out on strike in 1977, telling rank-and-file members — who unanimously voted to authorize a strike — in a recent video message, “We’ll crush them.” 

[...] The most significant issues would be faced by food and automobile industries, Kamins said, as they rely especially heavily on the ports that will be shut down. While a surge in inflation is highly unlikely even with a longer strike, even a modest reacceleration could create uncertainty and force the Federal Reserve to be more cautious about lowering interest rates, which would weigh on the overall outlook for job growth and investment. A one-week strike could cost the U.S. economy $3.78 billion, according to an analysis by The Conference Board, and cause supply chain slowdowns through mid-November. In all, the ports threatened with strikes handle $3 trillion annually in U.S. annual international trade.

Many industries are preparing for major repercussions. Noushin Shamsili, CEO and president of Nuco Logistics, which specializes in pharmaceutical imports and exports, said the strike comes at a critical time for inventory replenishment for the pharma sector. “Almost all of this industry is just on time,” said Shamsili. “Raw materials are being brought in to complete drug manufacturing. Medical supplies for clinics and hospitals are on these vessels. For a while importers did not bring in a lot of cargo because they were overflowing with supplies post-Covid. Now they have started reordering medical devices, gloves, syringes, and tubing.” Shamsili also said the East Coast ports are a gateway for generic medicine made in India. Approximately 48% of the active pharmaceutical ingredients used in the U.S. are being imported from India. Without these APIs, medications cannot be produced. APIs are also manufactured in Europe, which also use the East Coast ports as U.S. points of entry.

[...] The Biden administration finds itself in a delicate political moment, with the presidential election one month away and President Biden vowing he will not use existing labor law to force union workers back on the job, which is within his powers under the Taft-Hartley Act. The Taft-Hartley Act, passed in 1947, was a revision of U.S. law governing labor relations and union activity that granted a U.S. president the power to suspend a strike for an 80-day “cooling off period” in cases where “national health or safety” are at risk. 

Today begins the strike along East Coast and Gulf Coast ports after International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) members walked off their jobs.

This strike, depending on how long it lasts, could have a major impact on the elections and the economy.

"Vulkan is weird— but it's weird in a way that makes a certain sort of horrifying machine sense. Every Vulkan call involves passing in one or two huge structures which are themselves a forest of other huge structures, and every structure and sub-structure begins with a little protocol header explaining what it is and how big it is. Before you allocate memory you have to fill out a structure to get back a structure that tells you what structure you're supposed to structure your memory allocation request in. None of it makes any sense— unless you've designed a programming language before, in which case everything you're reading jumps out to you as "oh, this is contrived like this because it's designed to be easy to bind to from languages with weird memory-management techniques" "this is a way of designing a forward-compatible ABI while making no assumptions about programming language" etc. The docs are written in a sort of alien English that fosters no understanding— but it's also written exactly the way a hardware implementor would want in order to remove all ambiguity about what a function call does. In short, Vulkan is not for you. It is a byzantine contract between hardware manufacturers and middleware providers, and people like… well, me, are just not part of the transaction.

Khronos did not forget about you and me. They just made a judgement, and this actually does make a sort of sense, that they were never going to design the perfectly ergonomic developer API anyway, so it would be better to not even try and instead make it as easy as possible for the perfectly ergonomic API to be written on top, as a library. Khronos thought within a few years of Vulkan being released there would be a bunch of high-quality open source wrapper libraries that people would use instead of Vulkan directly. These libraries basically did not materialize. It turns out writing software is work and open source projects do not materialize just because people would like them to."

The Vital Role of Raw Material API in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

In the world of pharmaceuticals, there is more to the pill you pop than meets the eye. Behind every medicine that makes its way to your local pharmacy or healthcare provider, there is a complex process that begins with raw materials and relies heavily on API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) contract manufacturers. In this blog, we will explore the vital role of raw material APIs in pharmaceutical manufacturing and shed light on the unsung heroes - API contract manufacturers.

Understanding Raw Material APIs

Before we go into the nitty-gritty, let us break down the basics. Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, or APIs, are the essential components in medications that produce the intended therapeutic effect. In simpler terms, they are the superheroes that make your medicine work. These APIs can be derived from natural sources or synthesized through chemical processes.

The Importance of Quality Raw Materials

Imagine baking a cake with subpar ingredients – the end result would likely be a disappointment. Similarly, in pharmaceutical manufacturing, the quality of raw materials, especially APIs, is of utmost importance. The efficacy and safety of the final medicine depend on the purity and consistency of these raw materials.

Quality control measures start right from the sourcing of raw materials. Pharmaceutical brands therefore rely on contract API manufacturers to rigorously assess and select suppliers who adhere to strict quality standards. This ensures that the APIs meet the required specifications, providing a foundation for the production of safe and effective medications.

API Contract Manufacturers: The Unsung Heroes

Now, let us shine a spotlight on the behind-the-scenes players - API contract manufacturers. These are specialized companies that pharmaceutical firms enlist to produce APIs on their behalf. Think of them as the secret ingredient suppliers for pharmaceutical companies.

Flexibility and scalability are also noteworthy benefits. The pharmaceutical industry is dynamic, with fluctuating demand for different medications. API contract manufacturers offer the flexibility to scale production up or down based on market demands, enabling pharmaceutical companies to respond swiftly to changing conditions.

Ensuring Regulatory Compliance

In the pharmaceutical world, regulations are stringent, and compliance is non-negotiable. API contract manufacturing companies play a pivotal role in ensuring that the production processes meet the regulatory requirements set by health authorities.

These companies are well-versed in navigating the complex landscape of pharmaceutical regulations. From Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) to quality control and documentation, API contract manufacturers such as Akums Drugs & Pharmaceuticals Ltd are adept at adhering to the industry's stringent standards. This expertise is invaluable in securing regulatory approvals for the final drug product.

Collaborative Partnerships for Success

The relationship between pharmaceutical companies and API contract manufacturers is not just transactional; it is a partnership built on trust and collaboration. Communication is key to ensuring that both parties are aligned on quality standards, timelines, and any potential challenges that may arise during the manufacturing process.

This collaborative approach extends to research and development as well. API contract manufacturers often work closely with pharmaceutical companies in the early stages of drug development, providing valuable insights into the feasibility and scalability of manufacturing processes. This partnership fosters innovation and accelerates the time-to-market for new medications.

Conclusion

The journey from raw material APIs to the medicine you take involves a symphony of processes, with API contract manufacturers playing a crucial role in orchestrating this intricate dance. The quality, expertise, and flexibility they bring to the table are indispensable in ensuring that pharmaceuticals are not just produced but are produced with the utmost precision and compliance.

So, the next time you take your prescribed medication, remember the unsung heroes behind the scenes – the API contract manufacturers like Akums – who contribute significantly to making your healthcare experience safe and effective.
