INTRODUCTION Drug delivery Systems Drug delivery systems (DDS) have been developed in order to control pharmacological parameters such as bioavailability, biodistribution and pharmacokinetics of the administered substances. Bioavailability is defined as the percentage of an administered dose of therapeutic agent that becomes available in the systemic circulation in its active form. Drug delivery systems can enhance bioavailability by increasing in-vivohalf-lives of fragile pharmaceuticals e.g. protection
