The present analysis study emphasizes the polymers that are used to deliver therapeutic agents through pharmaceutical drugs. Among such dosage forms are tablets, patches, cassettes, films, semi-solids, and powders. The use of biodegradable polymers is becoming more and more common. They can degrade into non-toxic monomers, and, more significantly, they can be used to make controlled-release devices that Read More

BackgroundDiscontinuation and poor compliance with long-term oral medicine are major therapeutic issues in psychosis treatment. Poorer long-term outcomes may result from non-compliance as well as a higher chance of relapse. In order to sustain therapeutic drug plasma levels, co-administration of oral antipsychotics is necessary for commercially available long-acting injections of second-generation antipsychotics, Read More

BackgroundPoly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), an FDA-approved copolymer, is widely recognized for its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and versatility in drug delivery systems. Despite its advantages, challenges, such as poor drug loading and burst release, motivate the exploration of innovative modifications. The current research aimed to modify the linear PLGA to lipoyl ester terminated star PLGA polymer to minimiz Read More
