Dublin, Jan. 29, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wnt2f6/transdermal_and) has announced the addition of the "Transdermal and Transmucosal Drug Delivery Markets" report to their offering.

The transdermal/transmucosal drug delivery market consists of many companies including large and small pharmaceutical companies as well as large and small drug delivery companies. The competition among participants is intensifying not only within the specific category such as transdermal drug delivery but also among the competing drug delivery technologies to provide the best possible vehicle for administration of a particular pharmaceutical product.

The report profiles companies involved in the transdermal/transmucosal drug delivery market. Drug delivery companies have made tremendous strides in the transdermal/transmucosal drug delivery market. Several companies have products that are already enjoying market success while many others are at various stages of development. There is little doubt that this area of drug delivery will continue to flourish in the coming years.

Challenges remain for the development of transdermal/transmucosal drug delivery systems but continued research will likely break down the barriers that limit the types of drug molecules that may be delivered through the skin. The market is expected to be driven by various factors including the loss of patent protection for blockbuster drugs and the need to avoid the first pass effects of oral drug delivery. Additionally, with an added focus on active transdermal technologies, new applications will likely cause a resurgence of interest in transdermal delivery of products.
