Innovations in drug delivery systems are not only associated with the development of novel dosage forms but also with the development of new formulations using existing drugs for the treatment. These innovations in delivery of drug have many advantages like better patient compliance, maintenance of steady state concentration of drug for the prolong period, reducing dosing frequency, drug targeting to desired site of action and low side effects.
