3D printing for drug delivery and biomedical applications. Academic Article

abstract

• Pharmaceutical product development is continuously witnessing innovations for the design of new delivery systems to improve the therapeutic efficacy of drugs. 3D-printing technology has been used to design customized personalized medication to provide maximal therapeutic benefits for patients. I addition, 3D printing has also been used to manufacture drug delivery systems and biomedical devices to establish a paradigm shift in the healthcare industry. In this review, we provide an update on current progress, technological gaps, and regulatory considerations in 3D-printing technology.
