By Dr. Shabada Amareshwar, Dr. Yella Reddy Challa, Dr. Mangulal Kethavath & Dr. Raghavendra Kumar Gunda
(Edited by Dr. A. Muralidhar Rao)
Discover the science that shapes modern medicine.
This comprehensive textbook explores the principles, design, and applications of Novel Drug Delivery Systems (NDDS) - the foundation of today's advanced pharmaceutical technology. From controlled and targeted release to microencapsulation, implants, and mucosal systems, this book provides a deep yet clear understanding of how drugs can be delivered more safely, efficiently, and precisely within the human body.
Inside, you'll learn:
- Fundamentals of controlled, sustained, and targeted drug delivery.
- Design and mechanism of polymer-based delivery systems.
- Principles of microencapsulation, diffusion, dissolution, and ion-exchange systems.
- Modern mucosal, nasal, pulmonary, ocular, and implantable delivery approaches.
- Industrial examples, formulation techniques, and real-world case studies.
- Regulatory considerations and polymer selection strategies for CDDS and NDDS.
Ideal For:
- B.Pharm, M.Pharm, and Pharm.D students
- Pharmaceutical scientists, formulation researchers, and academicians
- Professionals preparing for GPAT, NIPER, or postgraduate exams
