Abstract
Forced degradation studies show the chemical behavior of the molecule which in turn helps in the development of formulation and package. A forced degradation study is an essential step in the design of a regulatory compliant stability program for both drug substances and products, and formalized as a regulatory requirement in ICH Guideline Q1A in 1993. Forced degradation is a degradation of new drug substance and drug product at conditions more severe than accelerated conditions. It is required to demonstrate specificity of stability indicating methods and also provides an insight into degradation pathways and degradation products of the drug substance and helps in elucidation of the structure of the degradation products. Thus, this review discusses the current trends in performance of forced degradation studies by providing a strategy for conducting studies on degradation mechanisms.
