Implantable, polymeric systems for modulated drug delivery.
The ability to deliver therapeutic agents to a patient in a pulsatile or staggered release profile has been a major goal in drug delivery research over the last two decades. This review will cover methods that have been developed to control drug delivery profiles with implantable polymeric systems. Externally and internally controlled systems will be discussed, spanning a range of technologies ...
متن کاملImplantable Drug Delivery Systems: An Overview
Controlled drug through diffusion and activation-based drug delivery devices have become commercially feasible due to converging technologies and regulatory accommodation. Combination products constructed using implantable technology offer revolutionary opportunities to address unmet medical needs related to dosing. These products have the potential to completely control drug release, meeting r...
متن کاملImplantable bone-conduction hearing device: practical considerations.
An implantable bone conduction hearing device can be of significant benefit to carefully selected patients with noncorrectable conductive hearing losses. However, for some patients the device has significant limitations. This paper presents several practical issues that need to be considered before a decision is made regarding implant surgery. It is recommended that, whenever possible, air cond...
متن کاملNovel transdermal drug delivery systems
Background and aim: Eczema is a common inflammatory skin disease. Although history and physical examination are important in diagnosis of allergen, because of extent of environmental allergens, those are not simply recognized. The objective of this study was to determine allergens in patients with contact or atopic dermatitis referred to Razi hospital.Materials and Meth...
متن کاملHighly deformable and highly fluid vesicles as potential drug delivery systems: theoretical and practical considerations
Vesicles that are specifically designed to overcome the stratum corneum barrier in intact skin provide an efficient transdermal (systemic or local) drug delivery system. They can be classified into two main groups according to the mechanisms underlying their skin interaction. The first group comprises those possessing highly deformable bilayers, achieved by incorporating edge activators to the ...
