Novel Drug Delivery Systems - Part I

Novel Drug Delivery Systems: Principles, Design, and Applications in Modern Pharmaceutics is a comprehensive and student-friendly textbook authored by Rofiqul Islam, Kamallochan Barman, and Abdul Kadir Jilani. The book provides a clear, structured understanding of the science behind modern drug delivery, bridging traditional pharmaceutics with emerging technologies such as nanocarriers, polymer-based systems, osmotic pumps, and implantable devices.Divided into two logical parts, the first section covers foundational concepts including controlled release principles, kinetic models, physicochemical and biological factors, and the role of polymers in formulation. The second part explores advanced systems such as microencapsulation, mucosal and transmucosal delivery, osmotic mechanisms, and implantable platforms designed for targeted and sustained therapy.With its blend of theoretical insights, mathematical models, conceptual diagrams, and practical relevance, this book serves as a valuable resource for B.Pharm, M.Pharm, and early-stage researchers seeking a strong grounding in modern drug delivery science and its applications in pharmaceutical innovation.
