Pharmaceutical Makers and Delivery Device Partners Rethink Delivery Technologies - New Report Examines this Evolving Segment

FARMINGTON, Conn., May 17, 2013 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- The escalation of new biological drugs, including antibodies and recombinant proteins, is placing renewed emphasis on alternate delivery technologies. Alternate delivery technologies are on the rise as a number of factors are converging to create both risk and opportunity for pharmaceutical makers and their delivery device partners. These include new classes of drugs for previously refractory conditions, the growing trend toward self-administration for chronic diseases, shifting patient demographics in industrial countries, caregiver safety legislation, and continued pressure to control healthcare costs.

These factors are giving rise to a new generation of sophisticated, application-specific injection, inhalation and transdermal drug products designed to satisfy caregiver and patient preferences while addressing managed care initiatives and the formulation limitations of new classes of therapeutic drugs. Because of their ability to safely and reliably satisfy treatment protocols and compliance goals, non-oral drug delivery products will have a significant impact on the future of drug self-administration.

The new Drug Self-Administration to 2018: Drug Products, Indications, Markets and Forecasts report is a comprehensive evaluation and analysis of the technology, products and participants providing the driving force behind this evolving segment of the drug delivery sector.
