3D Printed Medication
A 3D printed medication (also called 3D printed medicine, 3D printed pharmaceutical, or 3D printed drug) is a customized medication created using 3D printing techniques, such as 3D printed tablets. It allows for precise control over the composition and dosage of drugs, enabling the production of personalized medicine tailored to an individual's specific needs, such as age, weight, and medical condition. This approach can be used to improve the effectiveness of drug therapies and to reduce side effects. Applications Pharmaceutical tablets The most common application of 3D printing in pharmaceuticals is the production of tablets and capsules. 3D printing offers precise dosing, the ability to design tablets with improved release profiles, and the capability to combine multiple medications into a single tablet. Current developments primarily focus on 3D printing drugs for pediatric, geriatric, psychiatry, and neurology patients, where dosage adjustments are often necessary b ...

Drug therapy (pharmacotherapy) is an important part of the medicine, medical field and relies on the science of pharmacology for continual advancement and on pharmacy for appropriate management. Drugs are Drug class, classified in many ways. One of the key divisions is by level of controlled substance, control, which distinguishes prescription drugs (those that a pharmacist dispenses only on the medical prescription) from over-the-counter drugs (those that consumers can order for themselves). Medicines may be classified by mode of action, route of administration, biological system affected, or therapeutic effects. The World Health Organization keeps a list of essential medicines.
