Some medications may contain more than one active ingredient. The traditional word for the API is pharmacon or pharmakon which originally denoted a magical substance or drug. A dosage form of a drug is traditionally composed of two things: The API, which is the drug

itself; and an excipient, which is the substance of the tablet, or the liquid the API is suspended

in, or other material that is pharmaceutically inert. Drugs are chosen primarily for their active

ingredients.

2.3 NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY AND/REGION

Bulk drugs have become a part of our life for sustaining many of our day-to-day activities,

preventing and controlling diseases. Bulk drugs manufacturing sector in India is well

established and has recorded a steady growth in the overall Indian industrial scenario. The

bulk drugs and allied industries have been amongst the fastest growing segments of the

Indian industry.

The Indian Pharmaceutical Industry today is in the front rank of India’s science-based

industries with wide ranging capabilities in the complex field of drug manufacture and

technology. It is expected to reach a level of Rs 3200 billion by 2012. It ranks very high in the

third world, in terms of technology, quality and range of medicines manufactured. From

simple headache pills to sophisticated antibiotics and complex cardiac compounds, almost

every type of medicine is now made indigenously.

Playing a key role in promoting and sustaining development in the vital field of medicines,

Indian Pharma Industry boasts of quality producers and many units approved by regulatory

authorities in USA and UK. International companies associated with this sector have

stimulated, assisted and spearheaded this dynamic development in the past years and helped

to put India on the pharmaceutical map of the world.

India's pharmaceutical industry is the third largest in the world in terms of volume. Its rank is

14th in terms of value. India is also one of the top five active pharmaceutical ingredients (API)

producers (with a share of about 6.5 per cent).

The pharmaceutical industry in India meets around 70% of the country's demand for bulk

drugs, drug intermediates, chemicals, tablets, capsules, orals and injectibles. .Between

September 2008 and September 2009, the total turnover of India's pharmaceuticals industry

was US $21.04 billion. The domestic market was worth US $12.26 billion. This was reported

by the Department of Pharmaceuticals, Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers. As per a report

by IMS Health India, the Indian pharmaceutical market reached US $10.04 billion in size in July

2010. A highly organized sector, the Indian Pharma Industry is estimated to be worth $4.5

billion, growing at about 8 to 9 percent annually.

The pharmaceutical industry in Karnataka contributes Rs. 350 crore in revenue to the State

exchequer and provides employment for 12,000 people. Its growth rate is between 10-12 per

cent as against the national pharma growth of 12-14 percent. Pharma products worth Rs.

2,000 crore are produced annually, which is 10 per cent of the national production. The

exports sales are Rs.850 crore which is 8 per cent of Indian exports.

International pharma majors have preferred many companies from the State. When large

companies offer their services on contractual basis to global MNCs, they want to outsource

drug production for the domestic market from quality small-medium manufacturers in State.

Here the small-medium units ideally fit into slot as third party manufacturers and serve as

major hubs for pharmaceutical outsourcing. In fact, two of Indian pharma sectors top five

brands, are already outsourced from Karnataka. The units have been recognized for stringent

regulatory enforcement and known to manufacture quality products.

Hence the proponents have proposed to modify and expand the products in the existing facility of the industry at - M/s. VPL Chemicals Pvt. Ltd., at Plot no: 64, Sompura Industrial Area, Dabaspet, Nelamangala Taluk, Tumkur Road, Bangalore.

followed by addition of Azacyclonol and water in presence of Sodium bi carbonate and

potassium iodide. Reaction mixture was refluxed for about 36 hours. After the reaction was

completed, reaction mixture was cooled to 80oC charging by purified water. The reaction

mixture was stirred at same temp. for 30 min, there after allowed the mass to settle and

separate aqueous layer. Organic layer was distilled under reduced pressure and degassed for

2 hours to get the oily mass. Known volume of water and Ethyl acetate was added to the

reaction mixture at the same temperature and stirred for 2 hours at 5oC, the product was

filtered and washed with Ethyl acetate, i.e., 1-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-4-{4-

[hydroxyl(diphenyl)methyl]piperidin-1-yl}butan-1-one

was added to a mixture of methanol. The reaction mixture was cooled to 10°C and a solution

of sodium boro hydride was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature

for 4 hours and monitored by TLC. After the reduction was completed the solution was heated

to 60°C and the pH was adjusted to neutral by adding with dilute hydrochloric acid The

reaction mixture was again heated to reflux for about 2 hour and cooled to 5° C, the product

was filtered and washed with water and methanol. The material was dried. i.e., Terfenadine.

4.8 SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE

Infrastructure is the basic physical and organizational structures needed for the operation of

a society or enterprise or the services and facilities necessary for an economy to function.

The term typically refers to the technical structures that support a society, such as roads,

water supply, sewers, electrical grids, telecommunications and so forth and can be defined as

"the physical components of interrelated systems providing commodities and services

essential to enable, sustain or enhance societal living conditions”.

Viewed functionally, infrastructure facilitates the production of goods and services and also

the distribution of finished products to markets, as well as basic social services such as schools

and hospitals; for example, roads enable the transport of raw materials to a factory.
