IPEC India - International Pharmaceutical Excipients’ Council of India

IPEC India was registered in the year 2014 in India and is a not-for-profit organization. We are currently based at Mumbai, India. Key objectives for the Federation are Harmonization of Standards, Promoting Supply Chain Security, and the further development of Third-party Certification, as well as providing a source of Advice and Expertise for other stakeholders on excipients. Excipients play a critical role in the manufacture of medicines by helping to preserve the efficacy, safety, and stability of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), and helping to ensure that they deliver their promised benefits to patients. Optimal use of excipients provides pharmaceutical manufacturers with drug development cost savings, enhanced functionality, capability and can also assist in drug formulation innovation.
