A RIGOROUS EXPLORATION OF THE STATE OF THE ART IN CONTROLLED RELEASE DRUG DELIVERY
Written by an International team of experts, this comprehensive text offers pharmaceutical scientists and engineers working in the field, state-of-the-art design principles for the development and bioengineering of drug delivery systems/technology. Readers will find drug delivery systems presented with a particular emphasis on the design principles and their physiological/pathological basis. For each specific design principle, the contributors briefly introduce the relevant pharmacokinetics (where necessary) and include the challenges of different biological barriers that need to be overcome.
This in-depth text features detailed coverage of:
- Physiological and biochemical barriers to drug delivery
- Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drug delivery
- Diffusion and dissolution strategies
- Prodrugs
- Bioadhesive and gastric retentive systems
- Physiological and biochemical barriers to drug delivery
- Targeted drug delivery
- Device controlled and programmable drug delivery
- And more
