Injectable Drug Delivery

The term "Injectable Drug Delivery" refers to the administration of therapeutic substances directly into the body through injection. This method offers a rapid and efficient means of delivering medications, allowing for precise dosage control and often ensuring faster onset of action compared to other routes of administration.

Injectable drug delivery systems encompass various technologies and formulations, including:

• Syringes and Needles: Traditional syringes and needles are commonly used for administering drugs intramuscularly, subcutaneously, or intravenously.
• Autoinjectors: These are devices designed for self-administration of pre-measured doses of medication. Autoinjectors are frequently used for the treatment of chronic conditions such as diabetes or autoimmune diseases.
• Pen Injectors: Similar to autoinjectors, pen injectors are reusable devices that allow for convenient and precise drug delivery. They are often used for the injection of insulin and other injectable medications.
• Intravenous Infusions: This involves delivering drugs directly into the bloodstream through intravenous (IV) infusion. It allows for precise control over the infusion rate and is often used for critical care and certain therapeutic interventions.
