Providing a comprehensive review of drug permeation enhancement, this reference covers the
fundamental aspects of physical and chemical enhancement for the transport of both peptides and
nonpeptides through the skin, mucosae, and cornea.;Expanding the frontiers of drug delivery research, drug permeation enhancement details the barrier properties of skin; examines skin penetration enhancers; investigates the transdermal delivery of proteins
and peptides by iontophoresis; describes electrically mediated transdermal drug delivery; analyzes obstacles to the transmucosal delivery of peptides and proteins; and discusses ocular peptide absorption mechanisms.;Written by 35 internation authorities…
