Completely revised and updated, this Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery 4th Edition elucidates the principles of pharmaceutics, biopharmaceutics, dosage form design, and drug delivery – including emerging new biotechnology-based treatment modalities. The authors integrate aspects of physical pharmacy, chemistry, biology, and biopharmaceutics into drug delivery.
With the expiration of older patents and generic competition, the biopharmaceutical industry is evolving faster than ever. Consequently, this edition of the book emphasizes the heightened focus that the recent remarkable progress in gene editing, immunotherapy, and nanotechnology has brought to the design of new drugs and diagnostic approaches along with novel dosage forms.
Apart from new chapters, this edition highlights the emerging emphasis on the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in drug discovery, mRNA and antibody-based therapies, genome editing, immunotherapy, chemical kinetics, and the stability of drug products.
Features:
· Includes new chapters on antibody therapeutics, gene editing, and immunotherapy.
· Updated sections on pharmacy mathematics, chemical kinetics, and the stability of medicinal products.
· Explains newer approaches and future methods and the significance of artificial intelligence (AI) in drug discovery.
· Expansion of review questions and answers to clarify concepts for students and add to their grasp of key concepts covered in this ebook.
· Important updates on parenteral drug products, protein and peptide treatments, and biotechnology-based pharmaceuticals to provide a contemporary perspective on drug development, delivery, and pharmaceutical sciences.
Although there are numerous textbooks on pharmaceutics and dosage forms, most cover different areas of the discipline and do not provide an integrated approach. The integrated approach of this ebook not only provides a singular perspective of the overall field, but also supplies a unified source of information for students, instructors, and professionals, saving their time and money.
