Abstract

The small size and effective carrier capacity of microspheres make them a crucial component of novel drug delivery systems. With a particle size range of 1-1000 μm, microspheres are distinctively free-flowing powders made of synthetic polymers or proteins. The range of microsphere production methods provides several chances to regulate drug delivery processes and improve the therapeutic potency of certain medications. There are numerous techniques for delivering therapeutic medicines to target areas over time. One such technique is to employ microspheres, also known as microparticles, as medication carriers. When adjusted and kept at the correct concentrations at the location of interest, it provides a dependable method of delivering medications selectively to target areas. In addition to their capabilities for prolonged release, microspheres have received a lot of attention.
