Formulation is a major component in the efficacy of a drug. Formulation involves the preparation/mixture of an active pharmaceutical ingredient in/with a physical carrier (i.e., a tablet, spray, inhaler, or syrup) to insure adequate efficacy, delivery, and stability. Heavily used in formulation, polymeric excipients such as copovidone (PVP/VA64) can serve various functions when added to API such as matrix former, binding agent or sustained release agent.
