Abstract :
Historically, medications were often taken orally as liquids or powders. New dosage forms containing the medicine or drugs were produced in order to prevent issues that could arise from using the oral route of drug delivery. Delivery methods that could sustain a consistent medication release to the precise region of action became necessary as time went on. In order to maximize the therapeutic qualities of pharmaceutical goods and make them safer, more effective, and more dependable, drug delivery systems were created. One such system that is accessible for therapeutic use is the implantable drug delivery system (IDDS). This research focuses on the analysis of implanted medication delivery devices that are currently on the market. These systems’ main benefits include higher therapeutic efficacy, less medications needed to treat the disease state, reduced likelihood of adverse effects, and focused local drug delivery at a steady rate. The creation of these prolonged release formulations has made it feasible to provide unstable medications that previously required regular daily doses once a week to once a year. These technologies have proven to be more effective than traditional therapy approaches in preliminary investigations. The cost-benefit ratio (cost/benefit) of these recently discovered drug delivery methods is excessively high, which limits their adoption in comparison to traditional dosage forms.
Keywords: Implantable drug delivery system, implant, recent technology, implant.
