In this article we studied in creams are topical preparation for the applied on the skin. “viscous liquid or semisolid emulsion is called as cream" The topical formulation is used to introduced the drug into the skin or mucous membrane of skin. And also for the different skin disorders. In this article we also discussed in the types of creams and there examples. Then studied the creams is pharmaceutical product because they prepared on the basis of technology in pharmaceutical industry. They may be medicated or non medicated or they are herbal, ayurvedic & allopathic. Skin reflects origins, lifestyle, age and state of health. Skin creams are mainly classified as O/W & W/O. Then they will be emmulsified by emulsifying agent. In the skin creams various vitamins are used like vit A, E, & D3 are the synthetic and fatty acid (EFA) are used. In which also used the water, oil, fat, Waxes, colours, glycol and etc. Creams have the number of advantages like easy apply, more effective compares to other avoid risk, drugs are absorb perfectly but in which disadvantages also present like, skin irritation can occur due to adjuent, large size drug are not absorb perfectly and etc.

Pharmaceutical industry is one of the most important sector in Bangladesh. It is the only industry, which has its own strong manufacturing capabilities to produce the pharmaceuticals product. In this study it is tried to find out what types of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats the pharmaceuticals companies face in Bangladesh. There are about 250 pharmaceuticals firms in Bangladesh. Among them some companies are the large size and more sophisticated. Some companies are small sizes and traditional qualities. A few companies dominate the whole medicine market. So they have to face severe competition in pharmaceuticals market. SOWT (Strength, Opportunity, Weakness, and Threat) analysis of any industry sector investigates the important factors that are possibility of the industry and influencing the companies operating in that sector. The purpose of this study is to analyze the pharmaceutical sector of Bangladesh using the framework of SWOT. This paper brings to light on the SWOT analysis of pharmaceuticals industry in Bangladesh and provided some valuables suggestions to overcome the weaknesses and threats, there are some suggestions to utilize the strengths and opportunities properly. Through this study the researchers try to discuss the affect of various macro-economic factors of strength, opportunity, weakness, and threat aspect on the industry and its related problems and prospects for the future. JEL Classification Code: O25; O25

Emulgel have emerged as one of the most interesting topical delivery system as it has dual control release system i.e gel and emulsion. Topical applications of drug offers many advantages for delivering drug directly to the site of action and deliver the drug for extended period of time at effected site. The major objective behind this formulation is to enhance topical delivery of hydrophobic drug (Fusidic acid) by formulating Fusidic acid emulgel by using carbopol 934 as gelling agent. In addition light liquid paraffin as oil, span 20 as emulsifier and propylene glycol as co-surfactant were selected for the preparation of emulgel. Fusidic acid is steroidal bacteriostatic agent produced from Fusidium coccineum fungus belongs to class of steroids but has no corticosteroids effect and which is useful for the treatment of number of infections. Fusidic acid binds to protein and ribosomes and inhibits bacterial protein synthesis. The prepared emulgel were evaluated for their physical appearance, pH determination, viscosity, spreadability, in-vitro drug release, antimicrobial activity, skin irritation study and stability. All the prepared emulgel showed acceptable physical properties. The best formulation E9 shows better drug release when compared to all formulation. Keywords: Emulgel, Carbopol 934, Topical formulation, Antimicrobial activity, optimization, Fusidic acid

Generic drugs have an important role in ensuring the efficacy, safety, and especially the economic aspect of drug use. A generic drug is a pharmaceutical product, usually intended to be interchangeable with an innovator product manufactured without a licence from the innovator company and marketed after the expiry date of the patent or other exclusive rights. At present, unlikely FDA’s regulations, Vietnam’s law does not require all generic drugs launching in the market to prove the bioequivalence, the same efficient and safe as innovator drugs. Because of the rapid growth of the domestic pharmaceutical market, the standard and quality of generic drugs compared with innovator drugs have to be consolidated and proved through trials of bioequivalence, then building the faith of professionals and patients in using generic drugs. Thus the expansion of number and improving quality of the bioequivalence assessment centers become an important task of Vietnam pharmaceutical industry in the context of integration with the global pharmaceutical industry. Key words: generic drugs, innovator drugs, patent, bioequivalence, treatment.

The pharmaceutical industry experienced an unprecedented rate of increase in the cost of developing new drugs while the number of new drugs that were approved and accepted in the marketplace has reached a very low level. Various factors are responsible for this state of affairs. One of the major opportunities available to the pharmaceutical industry to improve this situation is to collaborate with the biotechnology industry. The future solutions to a host of current diseases as well new strains of existing ones lie in the cooperation between these two industries. The pharmaceutical industry will, however, have to carefully manage challenges such as increased governmental control and the damaged image of the industry. There are many opportunities offered by offshoring, advanced application of information technology, climate change and a new approach to sales and marketing, all of which the pharmaceutical industry can exploit. Should the pharmaceutical industry manage to address the issues responsible for the high costs prevalent in the industry, its role as partner with the biotechnology industry could prove to be very beneficial for both these industries.

Although many herbal medicines are effective in the treatment of hyperpigmentation, the potency of different constituents remains unknown. In this work, more than 20,000 herbal ingredients from 453 herbs were docked into the crystal structures of adenylyl cyclase and a human homology tyrosinase model using Surflex-Dock. These two enzymes are responsible for melanin production and inhibition of them may attain a skin-whitening effect superior to currently available agents. The essential drug properties for topical formulation of the herbal ingredients, including skin permeability, sensitization, irritation, corrosive and carcinogenic properties were predicted by Dermwin, Skin Sensitization Alerts (SSA), Skin Irritation Corrosion Rules Estimation Tool (SICRET) and Benigni/Bossa rulebase module of Toxtree. Moreover, similarity ensemble and pharmacophore mapping approaches were used to forecast other potential targets for these herbal compounds by the software, SEArch and PharmMapper. Overall, this study predicted seven compounds to have advanced drug-like properties over the well-known effective tyrosinase inhibitors, arbutin and kojic acid. These seven compounds have the highest potential for further in vitro and in vivo investigation with the aim of developing safe and high-efficacy skin-whitening agents.
