Why stability testing is crucial in drug formulation

I’ve been working on stability testing for a new formulation, and it’s fascinating yet challenging to see how even small changes can affect a drug’s efficacy. Recently, we discovered that one compound degrades much faster at higher temperatures, prompting adjustments in our storage requirements. It’s a reminder of how critical these tests are before any product goes to market.
