Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chapters in this volume describe a powerful emerging approach for the therapy of disease. Targeted drug delivery, that is control of the kinetic behavior, tissue distribution, and subcellular localization of pharmaco logically active agents, offers an important means for improving the efficacy of a wide variety of drug therapies. This is particularly true for therapeutic approaches based on newer agents which are the products of recombinant DNA research. These agents, be they peptides, proteins, or oligonucleotides, tend to be larger, more complex, and less stable than traditional drugs. Thus they stand to benefit most from drug delivery systems which can protect them from premature degradation and which can carry them to critical target sites in the body. This volume examines several important aspects of the current state of drug delivery research; it also attempts to project future directions for this field. Successful approaches to drug targeting are based, first of all, on a sophisticated understanding of the biological barriers encountered by the drug-carrier complex as it moves from the portal of administration to the ultimate target site. A second aspect of successful drug delivery is appro priate matching of the disease entity with the pharmacologically active substance and with the delivery system. Thus it is important to be aware of the variety of delivery technologies which currently exist and to be sensitive to their strengths and limitations.

In this book, we set out on a thrilling voyage through the constantly changing field of drug distribution, where groundbreaking discoveries and fresh ideas are revolutionizing how we use and perceive medication. It is our honor to expose to the enormous world of innovative drug delivery systems and explore their principles, uses, and promise to transform healthcare as the author of this comprehensive resource. This book's rigorous planning ensures a thorough comprehension of the subject matter by covering a broad variety of subjects that line up with the drug delivery systems curriculum. We go into the fundamentals of controlled medication delivery systems in Unit-I. We discuss controlled release formulation language, meanings, and justifications. We investigate the design concepts of diffusion, dissolution, and ion exchange for creating controlled release formulations. We also look at drug formulation-relevant physicochemical and biological characteristics. Polymers and the creation of formulations and we categorize polymers according to their characteristics and talk about their benefits for controlled release medication delivery systems. Methods for microencapsulation are introduced in Unit II. We explore implantable drug delivery devices and acquire understanding of mucosal drug delivery systems, including bioadhesion and mucoadhesion concepts. Transdermal drug delivery methods are examined in Unit-III, with an emphasis on skin penetration and the variables that affect it. We look into transdermal medication delivery system components and permeability enhancers. We also explore techniques for delivering gastroretentive drugs, such as floating and high-density systems, inflatable systems, and gastro sticky systems. We address nasal and pulmonary routes, formulation strategies, and delivery devices as we examine the Nasopulmonary drug delivery system. Targeted drug delivery is the subject of Unit-IV, which examines theories, methods, and the potential of liposomes, niosomes, nanoparticles, and monoclonal antibodies.
