  Custom Manufacturing The FDA defines an excipient as a stable ingredient deliberately added to therapeutic and diagnostic products, which are not intended to exert therapeutic effects at the intended dosage, but which may act to increase product delivery (e.g., improve absorption or key release of the drug substance).  Excipients are highly diverse and serve a critical role in optimizing drug delivery. According to recent researches, the pharma excipients Custom Manufacturing market will reach approximately $9.78 Billion by 2025, growing at a CAGR of approximately 6% from 2018 to 2025.  Example of excipients  Release Modifiers:   Often polymers (e.g., PLGA, TPU, and Silicone) that enable long-acting drug delivery systems such as implants and depot injections. Suspending Agents:    Material that increases viscosity to form sterile or non-sterile semi-solids and oral suspensions. Here are the key considerations for excipient selection  Quality of excipient  When it comes to excipient
