Formulation design: new drugs from old
نویسندگان
چکیده
Advances in molecular biology, and of physiological and disease processes, often identify opportunities for improving the performance of a medication. Performance enhancement might concern providing more options for administration, less frequent administration or simply providing medication that is more acceptable to the user. Possibilities also exist, depending on the kinetics and dynamics of drug action, and its dose– response relationships for improving efficacy or reducing side effects.
