Abstract
The impact of polymers on the pharmaceutical industry is the focus of this review. With the widespread use of complementary and alternative medicines, ensuring consistent access to medications poses a challenge, especially in low- and middle-income countries. However, the integration of polymers into drug delivery systems has facilitated local pharmaceutical production. This review examines the applications of polymers in areas such as polymeric therapeutics, drug delivery systems, biopharmaceutical manufacturing and processing aids, and primary packaging, with a focus on the Nigerian context. The review highlights recent trends and translational insights, opportunities and challenges associated with incorporating polymeric technologies, the importance of edible polymers in pharmaceutical progress, and diverse approaches in polymer drug delivery systems. Although there are challenges, such as cost, quality, and regulatory compliance, polymers have significant implications in pharmaceutical manufacturing and patient care, particularly in drug delivery, controlled release, and packaging. The future of polymer technology in the pharmaceutical industry relies on ongoing research and unlocking the full potential of polymers.
