“…Among them, pulsatile drug delivery systems (PDDS) have drawn attention as they allow repeatable and reliable drug release flux for clinical needs. Further, external stimulation signals such as temperature variation, 9,10 magnetic fields, [11][12][13][14] and electric fields, [15][16][17][18][19][20][21] can be used in PDDS to trigger or control drug release rates, thereby allowing remote control of local drug administration. Most of the PDDS devices are composed of a drug-loading container covered with a functional membrane, with drug release rates through the functional membrane controlled by modulating the external stimulations.…”
