    Pulsed drug delivery systems release medication rapidly after a trigger, unlike sustained release. This editorial explores recent advances and future strategies for triggered, pulsed drug delivery.

    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacology
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Materials Science

    Background:

    • Modern drug delivery seeks systems meeting specific therapeutic needs.
    • Sustained drug release maintains constant drug levels.
    • Pulsed drug delivery involves rapid drug release after a trigger and lag time.

    Discussion:

    • This editorial reviews novel concepts in pulsed drug delivery.
    • It examines systems activated by biological or external triggers.
    • Focuses on achieving rapid drug release within a defined timeframe.

    Key Insights:

    • Pulsed delivery offers an alternative to sustained release for specific therapies.
    • Triggered release mechanisms are crucial for precise drug administration.
    • Advances focus on controlling lag time and release kinetics.
