About the Book
This revised and fully updated Second Edition of Novel Drug Delivery Systems provides an in-depth and authoritative review of both fundamental principles and practical applications in the research and development of controlled drug delivery technologies. Covering peptide/protein macromolecules as well as non-peptide organic pharmaceuticals, the book remains a benchmark reference for researchers, students, and industry professionals.

Building on the strengths of the first edition, this updated version introduces several new chapters that expand the scope of the work significantly. These include detailed discussions on rate-controlled drug administration across various mucosal surfaces, controlled delivery mechanisms through multiple digestive tract membranes, and the systemic delivery of peptide/protein drugs via both parenteral and non-parenteral routes.

The book also highlights recent developments in regulatory approval processes and emerging technologies in advanced delivery systems. Comprehensive, research-focused, and rich in scientific detail, this edition continues to be an essential resource for pharmaceutical scientists, formulation experts, and healthcare professionals working in drug delivery and development.
