This volume provides a comprehensive overview of the current issues facing scientists working on delivering drugs locally and systemically via the membranes that line the mouth. The book describes the anatomical and physiological challenges of this route for drug delivery and how they impact the design of oral mucosal drug delivery systems. It also provides a detailed description of current oral mucosal drug delivery technologies that overcome these challenges alongside research, development and assessment methods. In 11 authoritative chapters, the book affords an in-depth evaluation of the major issues associated with this route of administration, namely the retention of the drug/product at...
An innovative new text for the pharmacy student that shows the relevance of pharmaceutics to clinical practice Written for pharmacy students who want to gain a better understanding of pharmaceutics, this full-color resource shows the relevance of pharmaceutics to clinical practice. The text provides students with an understanding of industrial pharmacy practices, which will assist them in correlating dosage form considerations with specific patient situations in real-world practice. While written on a level suitable for those with a pharmacy background, the book distinguishes itself from the competition by its more explanatory, conversational tone. •Outstanding pedagogy includes chapter summaries, line drawings, self-test questions, key concepts, and active learning exercises•Case studies and “what if” scenarios prepare students for real-world practice•Rich full-color presentation
Describing formulation challenges and their solutions in the design, development, and commercialization of modified-release drugs delivery systems, this book contains eighty papers that review recent developments in design and manufacturing techniques. It includes detailed descriptions of extended release drug products for the oral, nasal, ophthalmic, pulmonary, vaginal, dermal and transdermal pathways. With the exception of the final section addressing regulatory issues, each section covers a particular route for drug delivery and opens with an overview of the anatomical, physiological, and pharmaceutical basics of each route before moving on to cover specific technologies.
