In terms of dosing regimens and patient compliance,
neurological disorders represent one of the most challenging
areas of therapeutic medicine. Patients diagnosed with
conditions such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease,
Parkinson’s disease, and manic depressive disorder are often
not physically and/or mentally capable of reliably following
dosing instructions for the medications that they’ve been
prescribed. The availability of approved drugs for
neurological disorders with extended release profiles
creates the potential to improve patient compliance by
extending the time between dosing intervals. Drugs that have
been formulated as extended release versions include a
number of well-known APIs that have traditionally been
marketed as immediate release products. Currently approved
CNS drugs include extended release formulations for a dozen
separate neurological indications. While the majority of
these drugs are oral (tablets or capsules) formulations, the
number of extended release injectable and transdermal drugs
for CNS conditions is increasing.
