3D printing revolutionizes drug delivery with personalized tablets
Researchers at the University of Nottingham’s Centre for Additive Manufacturing have achieved a breakthrough in personalized medicine with Multi-Material Inkjet 3D Printing (MM-IJ3DP), enabling the production of tablets containing multiple drugs with timed releases. Central to this innovation is Poly-ACMO, a new soluble polymer ink that solidifies under UV light, allowing for precise control over drug release and the combination of multiple medications in a single tablet. This advancement promises to simplify complex medication regimens, particularly benefiting patients with complicated dosing schedules.
