Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Efforts to overcome the limitations imposed by the various physiological barriers of the human body in order to reach enhanced treatment outcomes have been challenging scientists worldwide over the last decades.
In this Special Issue of Pharmaceutics, authors from both academic and industrial backgrounds are invited to submit original articles for publication. These should report evidence of preclinical (in silico, in vitro or in vivo) and clinical trials, addressing the promising applications of drug delivery systems and permeation enhancement strategies through the buccal, nasal, ocular, rectal, and vaginal mucosa. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses on related subjects in this field will also be considered for publication.
