摘要

Embracing drug repurposing in the context of modern medicine means a significant paradigm shift that will have immense broad implications for patients, healthcare providers, and society in general. This chapter will discuss some of the features of drug repurposing and how it is bound to change healthcare delivery. Healthcare services are brought closer by repurposing available medications, and many people receive a chance for a better living, regardless of their economic status or geographical location. Furthermore, drug repurposing can also make way for the era of personalized medicine that would tailor treatments according to individual patient conditions and requirements. That would mean improved patient outcomes and fewer adverse effects, making the road to health smoother and more comfortable. Furthermore, it supports a more sustainable healthcare ecosystem by maximizing available resources and minimizing waste. Drug repurposing is also to embrace collaborations and innovations throughout the healthcare industry in bringing together various stakeholders for a more practical approach to address the unmet needs of medicines. Embracing drug repositioning as part of the fabric of medicine in this transformation landscape has the potential to draw a much brighter, inclusive, and sustainable future for health.
