Transdermal and Pulmonary Drug Delivery
Systems
Our experience and expertise in formulation design has generated many
collaborative opportunities to develop and patent drug delivery systems via the
transdermal and pulmonary routes. Specialized gels, skin patches and emulsions
have been extensively studied to overcome some of the current problems
associated with this route of drug delivery. In pulmonary drug delivery, surface
topography of carrier particles are studied for the design of better inhalation
products.
Matrix Compaction
In-depth studies have been carried out to investigate the functionality and
influence of different polymers on drug release profiles from oral modified
release dosage forms prepared by direct compression. Such dosage forms are attractive due to the ease
of manufacture and enhanced patient compliance.
