Cellulosic Polymers for Enhancing Drug Bioavailability in Ocular Drug Delivery Systems

One of the major impediments to drug development is low aqueous solubility and thus poor bioavailability, which leads to insufficient clinical utility. Around 70–80% of drugs in the discovery pipeline are suffering from poor aqueous solubility and poor bioavailability, which is a major challenge whe...
