Formulation and Drug Delivery

Formulation involves designing and preparing medicines in a way that ensures they effectively deliver the active ingredients to the body. It considers factors like stability, absorption, and releasing the drug at the right pace. Drug delivery refers to the method or system used to administer the medicine—such as tablets, injections, patches, or inhalers—aiming for optimal effectiveness and minimizing side effects. Together, formulation and drug delivery ensure that medications work safely and efficiently, reaching the target areas within the body to treat or manage health conditions.
