Full Description
Parenteral delivery of hydrophobic drugs is a challenging task. Research on exploiting newer approaches
to make the delivery of pharmaceuticals by nondigestive tracts effective yet safe and cost effective shows
that microemulsion is one such approach for parenteral delivery. This new book provides systematic
information regarding the preformulation of drugs, formulation using quality by design (QbD) principles,
and characterization of parenteral microemulsions for drug delivery. The book explores specific aspects
of microemulsions such as the role of surfactants and cosurfactants in formulation, clinical aspects of
parenteral microemulsion, regulatory perspectives and patents, as well as future challenges in this field
of research.
