Recent Advancement in Prodrugs

Prodrugs are said to be bioreversible derivatives which on biotransformation change into active pharmacophore. Prodrugs has been extensively studied amongst the drug design scientists for a wide range of applications. This book will cover the specific examples of prodrugs that overcomes drugs side-effects.

Recent Advancement in Prodrugs

Drugs used as medicines have many limitations like low chemical stability, aqueous solubility, or oral absorption/bioavailability, rapid presystemic metabolism, toxicity, inadequate site specificity, or poor patient acceptance/compliance (unwanted adverse effects, unacceptable taste or odor, irritation or pain). Prodrugs design is an approach to overcome these limitations.
