Science - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / veterinary drug manufacturing
French term or phrase: mise sous forme pharmaceutique
This is from a description about the manufacturing operations of a veterinary pharmaceutical company:

La réalisation d’une nouvelle unité, consacrée à la mise sous forme pharmaceutique et au conditionnement secondaire des vaccins, est effective en 1994. C’est un site hautement technologique un des plus importants en Europe.

I'm afraid I don't know much about drug manufacturing - is there an industry term for "mise sous forme pharmaceutique"? Thank you in advance!

Pharmaceutical manufacturing encompasses various operations in the pharmaceutical industry, starting with control of raw materials specifications going through the semi-finished drug product and ending with the finished product. It can include formulation, extraction, processin, manufacture, microbiology, sterilization, water management, tableting coating packaging, stability testing to name but a few of the operations.

Your text deals with the end part of the manufacture specifically the distribution of the batch manufactured into dosage forms and then the packaging of vaccines.

neutral  Peter Shortall: I would opt for "formulation", the French term means "putting a drug into its pharmaceutical form" rather than just the form itself
