Features

  • Provides regulatory perspectives on the debate over "enantiomer versus racemate"
  • Details recent breakthroughs in pharmacology and biopharmaceutics, including research on chiral drug formulation, delivery, and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics
  • Discusses recent advances in the development of unconventional ratios of isomers
  • Collects the latest studies from an interdisciplinary team of experts on chiral drug design
  • Summary

    Covering every essential element in the development of chiral products, this reference provides a solid overview of the formulation, biopharmaceutical characteristics, and regulatory issues impacting the production of these pharmaceuticals. It supports researchers as they evaluate the pharmacodynamic, pharmacokinetic, and toxicological characteristics of specific enantiomers and chiral drug compounds and addresses in one convenient reference all the major challenges pertaining to drug chirality that have been neglected in the literature. Chirality in Drug Design and Development collects the latest studies from an interdisciplinary team of experts on chiral drug design.
