Release drug formula
I have query here. I have seen drugs with sr,pr or er.
What is the difference between these sustain release , prolonged release and extended release.
Will there be any difference in drug release.
Can we change the drug with same dosage with er or sr?
Will it effect body's reaction if release changes irrespective of no change in active ingredient.
