Reconstitution Process

Meaning

The reconstitution process is the standardized pharmaceutical technique of restoring a substance, most commonly a lyophilized or freeze-dried powder, back into a sterile liquid solution by adding a specific, measured volume of a suitable diluent, such as bacteriostatic water. This precise procedure is essential for the administration of many peptide and protein-based hormonal therapies that require long-term storage in a stable solid form but must be injected as an aqueous solution. Accurate execution is paramount to ensure the compound’s integrity, concentration, and full biological efficacy.
