Packaging gives more information for a layman people about the use of drug.Nowdays packaging development is more important along with the drugsafety.packaging should be firm and safe up to the enduser of product. Packaging means a blends of science and technology. Packaging area not only helps in creation of wealth, preserving product quality, but also lengthens the shelf life of products. Growing demand of packaging in the pharmaceutical companies there is a demand for packaging professionals for producing consistent qualitative packaging materials in optimum cost. This review provides a brief introduction about packaging functions and packaging materials for different formulations like solid dosage forms, semisolid dosage forms, oral liquids, parenteral, liposome and transdermal patches.
