About the book: Advances in drug delivery is a very specialized area of
pharmaceutics where in the principles and technologies applied in the
formulation and development, are emerging and progressing. Advances
in Drug Delivery incorporates latest information regarding various subjects of
drug delivery. Drug delivery is a broad term encompassing various means of
achieving optimum drug reach to the target tissue, cell or the receptor.
Several preformulation, formulation, biopharmaceutical, targeting and
pharmacokinetic principles are applied in drug delivery. Research
and development in drug delivery is increasing at a rapid pace throughout the
world. The need for increased efficiency of new therapies and reduction in
future public health expenses will definitely bolster this area of research and
development. In order to meet this demand, many well known and efficiently
applied drugs will be reformulated in new drug delivery systems that can be
value-added for optimized therapeutic activity. Further, several new molecules
are being generated by medicinal chemists and their formulation is not any more
empirical but it is now very systematic. The aim of book is to enlighten
pharmaceutical scientists all around the world with latest information on the
topics which are involved in cutting edge growth of pharma research and
industry. Highlights • A chapter on hot melt extrusion is
included • Included a chapter on oral
disintegrating tablets - a value addition product
• Caters to all those who aim to
achieve higher objectives in drug delivery |
