Drug Delivery
Over the last several decades, drug delivery has become one of the most important features of the pharmaceutical industry. Drug delivery systems have become vital to the marketing efforts of big pharmaceutical, generic, and specialty pharmaceutical companies. These technologies can provide precise, predictable drug-release rates, cellular targeting, improved stability, or more efficient uptake into the body. These critical features result in greater efficacy, reduced toxicity, lower costs, and most importantly, enhanced patient compliance. Evaluating the research in this expanding interdisciplinary field, and understanding commercial developments are essential to maintaining a competitive advantage.
