Targeted drug delivery definition

Targeted drug delivery is a process in which concentration of medicine is increased in the specified part of the body rather than in other parts after its administration. The objective is to protect drug interaction from diseased tissue and supply a definite quantity for an extended period within the body. [Pg.458]

Controlled release implies regulation of the delivery of a drug usually by a device. The control is aimed at delivering the drug at a specific rate for a definite period of time independent of the local environments. The periods of delivery are usually much longer than in case of SR and vary from days to years. Controlled release may also incorporate methods to promote localization of drug at an active site. Site-specific and targeted delivery systems are the descriptive terms used to denote this type of control. [Pg.20]
