This document discusses various pharmaceutical factors that should be considered during preformulation studies to develop safe and effective dosage forms. It outlines 7 key factors: 1) flow properties, determined through angle of repose, Hausner ratio, and Carr's index; 2) density; 3) compressibility; 4) hygroscopicity; 5) electrostatic charge, measured using devices like INOSTAT; 6) rheology, examining viscosity using various techniques; and 7) wettability, determined by contact angle between liquid and solid surface. The preformulation study aims to characterize the physical, chemical and mechanical properties of new drug molecules.
