Crizotinib, approved in 2011, was the first approved inhibitor targeting anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) It used for treatment of the patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) positive. This chapter provides a complete review of crizotinib including nomenclature, physiochemical properties, methods of preparation, identification techniques and various qualitative and quantitative analytical techniques as well as pharmacology of crizotinib. In addition, the chapter also includes review of several methods for separation of crizotinib using chromatographic techniques.

Lapatinib is an anticancer used for treatment of the patients with advanced metastatic breast cancer in conjunction with the chemotherapy drug capecitabine or with letrozole for the treatment of postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer. This comprehensive profile of Lapatinib gives more detailed information about the description, formulae, Elemental Analysis, Uses and application. Furthermore, methods and schemes are outlined for the preparation of the drug substance. The physical properties of the medication include constant of ionization, solubility, X-ray powder diffraction pattern, differential scanning calorimetry, thermal conduct and spectroscopic studies are investigated. The methods employed in bulk medicines and/or in pharmaceutical formulations to analyze the drug substance include spectrophotometric, electrochemical and the chromatographic methods are indicated. Other studies on this drug substance include drug stability, pharmaceutical applications, mechanism of action, pharmacodynamics, and a dosing information are also reviewed.

Remdesivir, marketed under the brand name Veklury, is an antiviral drug with a broad spectrum of activity. There were various countries where the use of Remdesivir for the treatment of COVID-19 was authorized during the pandemic. Remdesivir was first designed to treat hepatitis C, but it was later tested for Ebola virus sickness and Marburg virus infections. Remdesivir is a prodrug designed to facilitate the intracellular transport of GS-441524 monophosphate and its subsequent biotransformation into GS-441524 triphosphate, a ribonucleotide analogue inhibitor of viral RNA polymerase. The objective of this chapter is to provide a comprehensive review of Remdesivir (GS-5734), including its nomenclature, physiochemical properties, preparation methods, identification procedures, numerous qualitative and quantitative analytical techniques, ADME profiles, and pharmacological effects. In addition, the chapter provides a variety of chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques for separating brimonidine from other drugs in combination formulations.

The growth and demand for cosmeceuticals (cosmetic products that have medicinal or drug-like benefits) have been enhanced for the last few decades. Lately, the newly invented dosage form, i.e., the pharmaceutical-based cosmetic serum has been developed and widely employed in various non-invasive cosmetic procedures. Many pharmaceutical-based cosmetic serums contain natural active components that claim to have a medical or drug-like effect on the skin, hair, and nails, including anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, anti-acne, hydrating, moisturizing, repairing, brightening and lightening skin, anti-hair fall, anti-fungal, and nail growth effect, etc. In comparison with other pharmaceutical-related cosmetic products (creams, gels, foams, and lotions, etc.), pharmaceutical-based cosmetic serums produce more rapid and incredible effects on the skin. This chapter provides detailed knowledge about the different marketed pharmaceutical-based cosmetic serums and their several types such as facial serums, hair serums, nail serums, under the eye serum, lip serum, hand, and foot serum, respectively. Moreover, some valuable procedures have also been discussed which provide prolong effects with desired results in the minimum duration of time after the few sessions of the serum treatment.

Brimonidine is a highly selective 2-adrenoceptor agonist that lowers intraocular pressure (IOP) by decreasing aqueous humor production and increasing aqueous humor outflow via the uveoscleral route. Brimonidine is used to treat glaucoma and other eye conditions. Brimonidine is a topical medication that is used mainly to treat open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension in the eyelids. The purpose of this chapter is to provide a comprehensive discussion of Brimonidine's nomenclature, physiochemical properties, preparation methods, identification procedures, and numerous qualitative and quantitative analytical techniques, as well as its ADME profiles and pharmacological effects. In addition, the chapter contains numerous approaches for separating brimonidine from other medications in combination formulations utilizing chromatographic techniques and other spectroscopic approaches.

Vandetanib is an anti-cancer drug called an antineoplastic kinase inhibitor. The FDA authorized vandetanib on April6, 2011 for the treatment of nonresectable, locally progressed, or metastatic medullary thyroid carcinoma in adults. Because Vandetanib can make the Q-T interval last longer, it shouldn't be given to people with serious heart problems like congenital long QT syndrome or heart failure that hasn't been fixed yet. This chapter provides an overview of Vandetanib's physical and molecular properties, mode of action, pharmacokinetics, and common applications. In furthermore, a detailed summary of the reported techniques of Vandetanib measurement will be provided to assist analysts in selecting the most practical approach for its estimation in routine analysis. This chapter will also explain the synthesis methods developed in the preparation of vandetanib as well as pharmacology of its. In addition, this section summarizes the analytical and characterization techniques utilized to characterize vandetanib row material.
