Insights into product development at Burgerstein
How is a Burgerstein product created? Why does every product need its own formula? And how are raw materials and dosage forms selected? Discover the thinking and development stages behind our products.
From the initial idea to the finished product
A Burgerstein product isn’t created overnight. It often takes between one and a half and two years from the initial scientific research, through the development of the formulation, to the product’s launch. Find out what stages a product goes through before it reaches the shelves of a pharmacy or chemist’s.
How a Burgerstein product is created
Why every product needs its own formulation
Not every ingredient is suitable for every dosage form. The optimal formulation is determined by stability, bioavailability and dosage. Discover why scientific and galenic decisions play a central role at Burgerstein.
A glimpse into our development process
What makes a high-quality raw material
Not every raw material meets our requirements. Properties such as purity, bioavailability, scientific data, regulatory requirements and quality control tests determine whether a raw material finds its way into a Burgerstein product.
How we select our raw materials
Why the dosage form is crucial
Tablet, capsule, granules or powder – each dosage form has its own advantages and challenges. At Burgerstein, the choice of the appropriate form is not made at random, but is based on the properties of the respective raw material, the planned composition (formulation) and the optimal benefit for the user.
