Addressing the needs of a growing patient group: geriatric oral drug delivery - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Because of worldwide demographic changes a dramatic increase of the geriatric population is expected in the next decades. While pediatric drug delivery principles are becoming integrated into the development of new medicines, drug developers are less prepared to appropriately address the specific needs of this booming patient population. This webinar tries to give an overview about the possible drug delivery strategies addressing old age dependent differences. There will be specifically focused on how patient convenience and compliance can be improved, how disease specific drug delivery strategies can help geriatric patients, and how learnings from pediatric drug development can be used as a platform towards geriatric drug delivery.
