Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Natural innovations in pharmaceutical formulation have been at the forefront of healthcare for centuries, with traditional remedies laying the groundwork for modern drug development. As we continue to explore and integrate these natural sources into contemporary medicine, the potential for novel drug carriers and formulations is vast. The Special Issue, "Natural Innovations in Pharmaceutical Formulation: From Traditional Remedies to Modern Drug Carriers", is dedicated to showcasing the convergence of nature-based wisdom and cutting-edge pharmaceutical science.
This Special Issue will delve into the exploration and application of natural compounds and materials in drug delivery systems. It will highlight the unique properties of natural substances that can enhance the efficacy, safety, and accessibility of pharmaceutical products. We aim to present the latest research findings and review the current understanding of natural ingredients in pharmaceutical formulations. The Special Issue will cover topics such as the identification and characterization of bioactive compounds from natural sources, the development of novel drug delivery platforms using natural materials, and the integration of traditional remedies with modern pharmaceutical technologies.
Prof. Dr. Titus Vlase
