This list of pharmaceutical compound number prefixes provides codes used by individual pharmaceutical companies when naming their pharmaceutical drug candidates. . Pharmaceutical companies generally produce large numbers of compounds in the research phase for which it is impractical to use often long and cumbersome systematic chemical names, and for which the effort to generate nonproprietary ...
Drug Delivery is a peer-reviewed open access medical journal covering research on all aspects of drug delivery, a core aspect of drug development. It is published by Taylor & Francis and since 2009 the editor-in-chief is Vladimir Torchilin. Biochemist Alfred Stracher founded the journal in 1997 and was its editor-in-chief until his death in ...
Systems used with pH-responsive polymers include implantable hydrogels and micro- and nanoparticles. pH-responsive drug delivery systems are particularly suitable for the design of chemotherapeutic delivery systems due to the naturally low pH found in tumor microenvironments, but can be applied in other disease settings where the pH of the ...
Drug delivery systems have been around for many years, but there are a few recent applications of drug delivery that warrant 1. Drug delivery to the brain: Many drugs can be harmful when administered systemically; the brain is very sensitive to medications and can easily cause damage if a drug is administered directly into the bloodstream.
Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews is a peer-reviewed medical journal covering research involving the controlled release and delivery of drugs and other biologically active agents. [1] The editor-in-chief is H. Ghandehari.
Gated drug delivery systems are a method of controlled drug release that center around the use of physical molecules that cover the pores of drug carriers until triggered for removal by an external stimulus. Gated drug delivery systems are a recent innovation in the field of drug delivery and pose as a promising candidate for future drug ...
Pharmaceutical codes are used in medical classification to uniquely identify medication. They may uniquely identify an active ingredient , drug system (including inactive ingredients and time-release agents) in general, or a specific pharmaceutical product from a specific manufacturer.
Microspheres composed of dextran have several advantages as a drug delivery system including controlled drug release, localized drug concentration, and reduced adverse reactions. Controlled drug release by these dextran microparticles is achieved by degradation, which is the breakdown of chemical bonds in the molecular structure of the ...
