Introduction of Prodrug Synthesis Design
Prodrug Synthesis Design involves the strategic modification of pharmacologically active compounds to improve their bioavailability, stability, and target specificity. By incorporating certain chemical moieties into the parent drug molecule, prodrugs can exhibit enhanced properties such as improved solubility, reduced toxicity, or extended release profiles. This strategy allows for optimized drug delivery and enhanced therapeutic outcomes.
