Event Overview:

Drug-device combination products offer options for the convenient delivery of drugs to patients. Because the patient frequently interacts with the drug and device, assessment of the compatibility of a device with certain drugs is crucial.

The compatibility of the drug and device components requires analysis of many different aspects including drug stability, chemical compatibility, and biocompatibility. These aspects need to be in balance to establish a healthy relationship within the combined products and to avoid any danger to the patient. 

In this webcast, learn about the necessity of a good relationship between the drug and the device for the benefit of the patient.

Key Learning Objectives:

During this 40-minute webcast, will review the following:

  • The regulations and practical applications of combined products

  • The different aspects of drug-device compatibility assessment in general
