Examine Injectable Drug Delivery Technologies, Targets, And Therapeutics With This Essential And Comprehensive Report

DUBLIN, Ireland --(Business Wire)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/3edab7/injectable_drug_de) has announced the addition of the "Injectable Drug Delivery - Technologies, Targets and Therapeutics" report to their offering.

Second only to pills and capsules in terms of importance, injectable drug delivery - the administration of therapeutic drugs via injection - is an indispensable delivery method for numerous drugs critical to patient health and well-being. But within this segment, the sands are shifting as several factors converge to drive demand for delivery methods that increase safety, compliance and ease-of-use. While the economics of traditional disposable syringe devices remain compelling, a number of companies are combining synthetic materials and novel device designs to create devices with improved reliable and lower cost. Syringe designers and syringe makers must adapt their design focus from the caregiver to the lay user to address these changes and the opportunities they represent. This comprehensive and timely study is designed to provide drug company decision makers, injectable drug delivery participants, syringe device developers, healthcare marketers, and supply chain participants with a detailed understanding of the economics, technologies, emerging therapies, and risk/reward scenario for injectable drug delivery. Designed and Written for market participants, the report contains the information necessary to identify and understand the growing importance of injectable drug delivery on self-administration, drug formulations, drug-device development, and therapeutic treatment protocols.
