Novel Drug Delivery Systems: Principles and Practice presents a rigorous and contemporary exploration of controlled, targeted, and smart drug delivery technologies. Written for B.Pharm, M.Pharm, Pharm.D students, researchers, and pharmaceutical professionals, the book integrates fundamental principles with emerging advances in nanotechnology, intrauterine systems, ocular delivery, 3D printing, and AI-assisted formulation design.
Moving beyond descriptive coverage, the text builds a clear mechanistic understanding of diffusion, polymer science, pharmacokinetics, and device–drug integration. Each chapter connects theory with clinical relevance and industrial application, reflecting current regulatory perspectives and global trends in advanced therapeutics.
Designed to support both conceptual mastery and examination readiness, the book includes carefully structured Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) with answers, short answer questions, long answer questions, practical experiments, and a comprehensive glossary for quick revision. The question sets are aligned with university curricula and competitive examinations, making the text equally valuable for academic preparation and professional development.
With its balanced treatment of scientific depth and practical clarity, this volume serves as a dependable reference for those seeking a systematic understanding of modern drug delivery science.
