Integrating the most advanced technologies in drug formulation and delivery systems is revolutionizing modern healthcare, leading to improved treatment efficacy and patient outcomes. This study explains how new technologies are transforming the way drugs are manufactured and delivered. They include the use of advanced materials, nanotechnology, and biotechnology. Nanotechnology has also enabled the fabrication of targeted drug-delivery particles. Such particles would guarantee that drugs reach a specific tissue or cell, with notable minimization of side effects. The precise targeting of drugs is found to significantly enhance the effectiveness of treatment in fields, such as oncology and personalized medicine, among others. Breakthroughs can also be observed in the design of biologics, gene therapies, and monoclonal antibodies, resulting in highly targeted treatments for a wide range of diseases. Besides novel drug formulations, smart delivery devices have also been designed that not only control the location and rate of drug release, but also the timing of drug release. These include implantable pumps, which ensure more controlled and sustained drug release, bio-responsive hydrogels, medication-eluting stents, which ensure controlled and sustained drug release, and many more devices. This reduces the number of readjustments and increases the likelihood of patient compliance with the treatment plan. This study also discusses the role of digital technologies, such as wearables and AI-driven drug delivery systems, which continue to track patient responses and dosages to improve the outcomes of therapy. Such developments have marked a significant paradigm shift in pharmaceutical research, bringing highly personalized, secure, and effective treatment options to patients worldwide.
