Overview:
Shelf-life testing evaluates how long a drug product remains safe, effective, and stable under specific environmental conditions. This is essential for defining expiry dates, storage conditions, and ensuring regulatory compliance and consumer safety.

Test Description:
Drug samples are stored under accelerated, intermediate, or real-time (long-term) conditions inside stability chambers. At predetermined intervals, the samples are withdrawn and tested for critical quality attributes such as potency, degradation, appearance, pH, moisture content, and dissolution profile.
