Review on Microparticulate Drug Delivery System
نویسندگان
چکیده
The controlled release of drugs in slow and sustained manner is one of the major challenges in drug delivery system. Targeting of drug to the particular site is an important aspect of drug delivery system. Microparticles were initially developed as carrier for vaccines & anticancer drugs. They have now been used to increase the efficiency of drug delivery system & improve release profile & for drug targeting. Microparticles have been proven to be useful in this manner for the delivery of various active pharmaceutical ingredients. The current aim of this review is to study various aspects of the microparticulate drug delivery system including method of formulation, evaluation & characterization.

متن کاملA Review on Current Status and Future Potential of Transdermal Patches as a Promising Drug Delivery System
Transdermal patches are now widely used in topical and transdermal drug delivery systems (TDDS). Up to now, TDDS has been used in several conditions, such as smoking cessation, analgesic effect, nausea, contraception, and hormone therapy. Basically, there are two types of transdermal patches: the reservoir-type patches and the matrix-type patches. First generation TDDS were designed for deliver...
متن کاملPolymer- and liposome-based nanoparticles in targeted drug delivery.
This review focuses on polymer- and liposome-based nanoparticles used in targeted delivery of bioactive molecules, from drugs to siRNA to pDNA. The perspective centers around commercial and clinical successes, and a rationalization of these successes. Microparticulate systems are not covered, and only those applications that truly utilize the advantages of nano size are covered. "Stealth" syste...
