Lactic-glycolic acid copolymers, controlled drug release system with

Drug delivery microspheres, in particular smart systems with controlled release, have been developed with PLA and its copolymers with glycolide to produce poly[(D,L-lactic acid)-co-(glycolic acid)]. Since the 80 s up until the present, many publications have reported on the various applications in the pharmaceutical field for using PLA and copolymers and polymers for their sustained release parenteral formulations and performance in drug release in a controlled manner from microspheres [200, 201].
