Peptide Delivery Methods

Meaning

Peptide delivery methods encompass the various pharmacological strategies and formulations used to introduce therapeutic peptides into the body and ensure their effective bioavailability at the target site of action. Given that peptides are generally large, fragile molecules susceptible to degradation by digestive enzymes, these methods are crucial for clinical efficacy. Common approaches include parenteral administration, transdermal patches, or specialized oral formulations designed to bypass gastrointestinal breakdown.
