Abstract

Advancement instils no ceiling. With vast amelioration of technology and blooming of biomedical information, a tremendous effort for improvement in drug delivery technology has been observed. The advancement of drug formulation has also been leading more toward further sophistication of drug transport systems that could deliver drug to site-specific cells/tissues/organs in vivo. Such target–specific drug delivery systems are needed because they can decrease dose and frequency of administration of drugs and thereby, reduce drug-related toxicity (Chakraborty et al., 2020). The present issue has highlighted several current areas related to the advancement of drug formulations.
