Deskripsi
Polymer-based systems are often considered a necessity for controlled drug delivery, but have well-known limitations. Here, the authors report on drug delivery implants formed solely from corticosteroid dimers, which demonstrate controlled release and overcome many of the challenges of polymer-based systems.
