摘要

In recent years, there has been an increased interest in using natural excipients as sustainable possibilities to synthetic substitutes in drug delivery systems. Natural excipients obtained from biological sources provide a biocompatible and environmentally friendly solution that can greatly improve the efficacy of pharmaceutical formulations. Because of their particular physicochemical features, they may enhance the bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs, making them a desirable choice in current drug development. Formulators can improve drug solubility, stability, and absorption while also reducing their dependence on synthetic ingredients, which can be toxic and also environmentally harmful. The incorporation of natural additives can thus help develop safer, more effective pharmaceuticals while also meeting the growing need for green pharmaceutical practices. This chapter investigates the possibilities of natural excipients in a wide range of medication formulations, including oral, topical, and injectable systems. It presents a thorough study of the challenges and opportunities connected with these materials, notably in terms of regulatory compliance, cost-effectiveness, and production scalability. The overall goal is to show how natural excipients improve drug delivery methods while also paving the road for a more sustainable and environmentally conscientious pharmaceutical sector. Manufacturers can lower the carbon footprint of medicine production by using these bio-based alternatives, so contributing to global sustainability initiatives. Finally, this method has the potential to improve treatment outcomes, reduce environmental impact, and strengthen the pharmaceutical supply network.
