The medical field has been playing an important role in everyone’s life not only in human life but also in the life of other living species. The most important part of the medical field is the “Medicine” and when it comes to medicine, the manufacturing process and the packaging play a very critical role.

So, what is pharmaceutical packaging, how it’s been done, does it have different types, what are the materials used? Well, let’s reach out to all such questions and more.

Whether it’s any other product or medicine, packaging plays an important part in all.  Packaging has often been referred to as the 5th P of the marketing mix. In the case of medicines, the packaging is not just part of the marketing mix but very critically related to the product features, application, and shelf life. The packaging of drugs is important to protect drugs from damage, germs, outer atmosphere, and bacteria and at the same time have to take care of child and old age safety concerns.

Types of Pharmaceutical Packaging:

  • Containers
  • Aluminium foil
  • Injectibles/ Vials
  • Bottles
  • Cartons
  • Paper Board
  • Lamitubes
  • Paper
  • PVC Based Combinations

Packaging in the pharmaceutical industry varies from drug to drug and normally there are three levels of packaging commonly referred to as the primary, secondary, and tertiary packaging.

1. Primary packaging system is the material that first envelops the product and holds it i.e., those package components and subcomponents that actually come in contact with the product, or those that may have a direct effect on the product shelf-life e.g., ampoules and vials, prefilled syringes, IV containers, blister packs, etc.

2. Secondary packaging system is outside the primary packaging and used to group primary packages together e.g., cartons, boxes, shipping containers, injection trays, etc.

3. Tertiary packaging system is used for bulk handling and shipping e.g., barrel, container, edge protectors, etc.

Some commonly used types of primary pharmaceutical packaging are Ampoules, Vials, Blister packs, Bottles, and Sachet packaging.
