A Review On 3d Printed Tablets : A Downloadable Medicine
3Dimensional (3D)-printing is a rapid prototyping or additive manufacturing is a recent innovative technology that manufacture 3D shapes in a layer by layer method directly by computer aided drug design technology. Computer aided drug design(CADD) is an emerging tool for research and drug development process as it reduce the time taken for the process of drug development and expense. In 3D printing successive layers of material are formed under computer control to create an object. It is having high degree of flexibility over controls over the release of drug which is formulated as in different layers of tablets. 3D printing has an exclusive opportunity for the preparation of personalized medication to patient needs. This review deals with the scope of the 3D printing technology, various methods of preparation and regulatory problems with 3D printing pharmaceuticals.
