Microneedle-mediated Transdermal and Intradermal DrugDelivery covers the major aspects relating to the use ofmicroneedle arrays in enhancing drug delivery applications. Itprovides an overview of the various methods employed to design andproduce microneedles, from the different materials involved to theimportance of application methods. It carefully and criticallyreviews ongoing transdermal and intradermal delivery research usingmicroneedles and includes the outcomes of in vivo animal and humanstudies. Importantly, it also discusses the safety and patientacceptability studies carried out to date. Finally, the bookreviews the recent patents in microneedle research and describesthe ongoing developments within industry that will determine thefuture of microneedle-mediated transdermal and intradermal drugdelivery.
By an expert author team with practical experience in the designand development of drug delivery systems this is the only text thatprovides a comprehensive review of microneedle research intransdermal and intradermal drug delivery.
