Abstract
The oral drug delivery market is the largest segment of the drug delivery
market, and there' s no sign that it is slowing down. With pharmaceutical
companies increasingly turning to drug delivery to extend the revenue-earning
lifetime of their biggest products, find a convienient form and market
acceptance of new biopharmaceuticals, and tap into the growing elderly
population that requires products with a level of ease-of-use and cost
benefit, it' s no surprise that the oral delivery drug market is a $35 billion
industry and expected to grow as much as ten percent per year.
