American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy, 1991
New and emerging drug delivery systems for traditional drugs and the products of biotechnology are discussed, and the role of the pharmacist in ensuring the appropriate use of these systems is outlined. Advantages of advanced drug delivery systems over traditional systems are the ability to deliver a drug more selectively to a specific site; easier ...

Pain Practice, 2006
Abstract: Intrathecal drug delivery (IDD) is a proven and effective treatment alternative in carefully selected patients with chronic pain that cannot be controlled by a well‐tailored drug regime and/or spinal cord stimulation (SCS), and may be specifically trialed in patients who fail to respond to SCS.

Drugs, in the majority of cases, are toxic at high doses however, they must be present in the circulation for a time sufficient to reach therapeutically useful results. This is commonly achieved by repeated drug administrations, which give rise to peak and valley drug concentration. Such a method of administration has two disadvantages: on the one hand

Buccal Drug Delivery System-A Novel Drug Delivery System
Research Journal of Science and Technology, 2016Buccal delivery is defined as drug administration through the mucosal membranes lining the cheeks (buccal mucosa). The main impediment to the use of many hydrophilic macromolecular drugs as potential therapeutic agents is their inadequate and erratic oral absorption.

Mucoadhesive Drug Delivery Systems
2009The uptake of drugs is often limited by the short contact time between the formulation and the absorption membrane and by a fast washout. Using mucoadhesive polymers, however, the residence time of the dosage form on the mucosa can be significantly increased.

Ophthalmic drug delivery systems
Drug Development Research, 1984AbstractNew ophthalmic drug delivery systems are curently receiving increased attention, in part because of the expected emergence of new drugs with short biological half‐lives whose usefulness may depend on a more continuous drug supply than eyedrops can provide, but also because of the potential of some delivery systems to reduce the side effects of ...

Journal of Aerosol Medicine, 1994
Nebulizers, both jet and ultrasonic, were originally designed to convert a liquid solution into an aerosol. During recent years suspensions for nebulization have been developed and nebulized with the available devices. In-vitro comparisons of drug output from jet and ultrasonic nebulizers have shown significant differences between solutions and ...

Interdisciplinary Science Reviews, 2000
AbstractDrug delivery systems have an important role to play in the administration of drugs, vaccines, and diagnostic agents. Systems based on biodegradable polymers can be especially advantageous for use as implants that provide a slow, steady release of a pharmacological agent.

Drug Delivery Systems. 6. Transdermal Drug Delivery
The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1991Transdermal drug delivery system has been in existence for a long time. In the past, the most commonly applied systems were topically applied creams and ointments for dermatological disorders. The occurrence of systemic side‐effects with some of these formulations is indicative of absorption through the skin.

Drug delivery to the nervous system [PDF]
Delivery of drugs to the nervous system remains a challenge despite advances in our understanding of the mechanisms involved in the development of neurodegenerative disorders and the actions of neuroactive agents. Drug accessibility to the central nervous system is limited by the blood-brain barrier; although the peripheral nervous system is more ...
