Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Integrating specific needs of younger or elderly patients with the aim to improve their observance seems to be a real challenge for future drugs.
Elderly represent a huge target, but children and teenagers must also be carefully studied regarding as future adults that they will become, also consumers for a long time.
Offering new dispensing systems in pharmaceutical field appears increasingly important. Devices and 'ready to use' products can be helpful for consumers who require new systems to help them to follow treatments more effectively thanks to appropriate design. A drug more properly taken thanks to a more adapted design will be more efficient. An evolution in terms of specifications and future prospects in relation to new formulations will be proposed in a special issue on 'dosage personalization in modern medicine'.
