With the FDA approval of the first 3D printed tablet, Spritam®, there is now precedence set for the utilization of 3D printing for the preparation of drug delivery systems. The capabilities for dispensing low volumes with accuracy, precise spatial control and layer-by-layer assembly allow for the preparation of complex compositions and geometries. The high degree of flexibility and control with 3D printing enables the preparation of dosage forms with multiple active pharmaceutical ingredients with complex and tailored release profiles. A unique opportunity for this technology for the preparation of personalized doses to address individual patient needs. This review will highlight the 3D printing technologies being utilized for the fabrication of drug delivery systems, as well as the formulation and processing parameters for consideration. This article will also summarize the range of dosage forms that have been prepared using these technologies, specifically over the last 10 years.
随着首款3D打印片剂Spritam®获得美国食品药品监督管理局(FDA)批准,3D打印在药物递送系统制备中的应用现已树立了先例。3D打印能够精确地分配少量药物,实现精确的空间控制和逐层组装,从而制备复杂的成分和几何形状。3D打印具有高度的灵活性和可控性,能够制备含有多种活性药物成分、具有复杂且定制化释放曲线的剂型。这项技术为制备满足个体患者需求的个性化剂量提供了独特的机会。本综述将重点介绍用于制造药物递送系统的3D打印技术,以及需要考虑的制剂和加工参数。本文还将总结使用这些技术制备的剂型范围,特别是在过去10年中的情况。
