Implantable Drug Delivery System: A Review
In the past, drugs were frequently administered orally, as liquids or in powder forms. To avoid problems incurred through the utilization of the oral route of drug administration, new dosage forms containing the drug(s) were introduced. As time progressed, there was a need for delivery systems that could maintain a steady release of drug to the specific site of action. Therefore, drug delivery ...
متن کاملAn Implantable Microfabricated Drug Delivery System
We report on the development of a fully implantable drug delivery system capable of delivering hundreds of individual doses. This product is intended for the controlled release of potent therapeutic compounds that might otherwise require frequent injections. Our system has the following capabilities:
متن کاملMEMS-based Implantable Drug Delivery System
Implantable devices are currently used regularly for chronic pain relief, cardiac pacemakers, arterial infusion for cancer and insulin delivery. A MEMS based implantable drug delivery system (IDDS) integrating a subcutaneous reservoir, an in plane silicon pump and associated circuitry for local or centralized delivery of therapeutic agents for chemotherapy is proposed. System configurations, fl...
متن کاملImplantable MEMs for Drug Delivery
Figure 1: Photographs showing (A) top and bottom of the silicon microchip, and (B) a packaged device with wire-bonded connector We have developed an implantable silicon microelectromechanical system (MEMS) device for biomedical applications [1]. This device contains an array of wells that hermetically store its contents. Activation of the device electrochemically dissolves gold membranes coveri...
متن کاملRadiation‐Sensitive Dendrimer‐Based Drug Delivery System
Combination of chemotherapy and radiotherapy is used to enhance local drug delivery while reducing off-target tissue effects. Anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) is loaded into l-cysteine modified G4.5 dendrimer (GC/DOX) and released at different pH values in the presence and absence of γ-radiation. Presence of γ-radiation significantly improves DOX release from the GC/DOX under acidic pH conditi...
