Abstract
Smart bioresorbable polymers play a crucial role in pharmaceutical drug delivery and medical device applications. Among several bioresorbable polymers, poly lactic-co-glycolic acid and poly lactic acid are two common synthetic polymers used for various applications. Owing to their stimuli-sensitive behavior, they are called ‘smart polymers.’ Numerous commercial applications have demonstrated the effective use of bioresorbable polymer-based drug delivery systems for the treatment and diagnosis of several diseases and disorders. This review provides an overview of bioresorbable polymers as well as the associated commercial technologies and applications in the United States Food and Drug Administration-approved products and in drug delivery and medical devices.
