This book covers the twin disciplines of Biopharmaceutics
and Pharmacokinetics have, therefore, been developed with the objective of
learning how drugs can be utilized optimally in the treatment of
diseases–through design and development of new and better therapeutic moieties,
new dosage forms and appropriate dosage regimens. A very good book for
undergraduate students of pharmacy.Significant expansion of the chapter on
controlled release medication has been made to cover in a broader perspective,
the principles employed in the design of such dosage forms, their
classification and brief description of the technologies and products delivered
by various routes. The concerted attempt was to collectively address the
several modern approaches adopted to design the modified drug delivery systems,
which is an exciting and highly dynamic area of pharmaceutical research.
