SOLID DELIVERY SYSTEMS FOR CONTROLLED RELEASE OF MOLECULES INCORPORATED THEREIN AND METHODS OF MAKING SAME

摘要

The present invention encompasses solid dose delivery systems for administration of guest substances. Preferred delivery systems are suitable for delivery of bioactive materials to subcutaneous and intradermal, intramuscular, intravenous tissue, the delivery system being sized and shaped for penetrating the epidermis. The delivery systems comprise a vitreous vehicle loaded with the guest substance and capable of releasing the guest substance in situ at various controlled rates. The present invention further includes methods of making and using the solid dose delivery systems.
