An Imperative Note on Novel Drug Delivery Systems

Abstract

A new era of science and technology has evolved in pharmaceutical research focussed at development of different novel drug delivery systems. The evolution of an existing drug from its traditional form to a novel delivery system may considerably improve its performance in aspects of efficacy, safety and patient compliance. So the method of administrating a drug can also have significant effect in its efficacy. In recent years the considerable advances in drug delivery systems have enabled more effective routes of administration. This review highlights the different novel drug delivery system, drug carriers and their potential to resolve the current challenges faced by biotechnology and pharmaceutical Industries.

Oligonucleotide therapy: An emerging focus area for drug delivery in chronic inflammatory respiratory diseases

“…Liposomes are colloidal drug delivery systems consisting of a lipid layer encircling an aqueous centre. The drug is distributed as per its solubility in the lipid layer or hydrophilic core and these carriers enhance pharmacokinetics of the drugs [27]. Additionally, channel proteins might be developed into liposomes as well, that allow passageway of tiny-sized particles, for instance; ions, antibiotics, and nutrients.…”

SARS-CoV-2 and its new variants: a comprehensive review on nanotechnological application insights into potential approaches

“…Drug delivery system is a method used to deliver drugs to desired cells and organs using a different drug carriers (Bheemidi et al 2011). Its major purpose is to overcome problems of the pharmacological activities of drugs like the lack of selectivity, solubility limitation and drug aggregation, and to reduce the therapeutic undesirable effects .…”

Synthesis of nanomedicine hydrogel microcapsules by droplet microfluidic process and their pH and temperature dependent release

“…The encapsulated doxorubicin can be rapidly released under the acidic tumor microenvironment. 38,39 Therefore, exploring effective controlled-release methods and related hydrogel systems is of great signicance for developing biocompatible nanomedicine encapsulation systems.…”
