Microneedle Technologies Creating Novel Opportunities in Transdermal Drug Delivery Industry
With the healthcare industry moving toward patient convenience and comfort, pharmaceutical and medical device companies are continuously researching for the most effective, side effect free, convenient route of drug delivery. Transdermal drug delivery is a painless method of delivering drug formulation. Transdermal route of drug administration has several inherent limitations which can be overcome by technology innovations such as skin ablation (laser, radio frequency), electrical (iontophoresis and electroportation), mechanical (microneedle) methods. This research report focuses different technology innovations, key innovators in this space, industry trends, and impact across different therapeutic areas.
