Hypertension  or High BP is a condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is elevated. With every heartbeat, the heart pumps blood through the arteries to the rest of the body. Blood pressure is defined as the force with which the blood is pushed up against the walls of the blood vessels (Arteries). If the pressure is too high, the heart has to work harder to pump, and this could lead to the organ damage and may lead to several cardiovascular problems like heart attack, stroke, heart failure,aneurysm,  and if the BP is not treated it may also lead to renal failure.  The normal blood pressure is120/80, where 120 represents the systolic measurement (peak pressure in the arteries) and 80 represents the diastolic measurement (minimum pressure in the arteries). Blood pressure between 120/80 and 139/89 is called prehypertension (to denote increased risk of hypertension), and a blood pressure of 140/90 or above is considered hypertension.  Hypertension m...

  Ophthalmic drug delivery is one of the interesting and challenging endeavors facing the pharmaceutical scientist today. The anatomy, physiology, and biochemistry of the eye render this organ highly impervious to foreign substances. A significant challenge to the formulator is to circumvent the protective barriers of the eye without causing permanent tissue damage. Conventional eye drops, suspension, and ointment dosage forms no longer constitute optimal therapy for these indications. Research and development efforts to design better therapeutic systems particularly targeted to posterior segment are the primary focus of this text. The goal of pharmacotherapeutics is to treat a disease in a consistent and predictable fashion, assuming that a correlation exists between the concentration of a drug at its intended site of action and the resulting pharmacological effect. The specific aim of designing a therapeutic system is to achieve an optimal concentration of a drug at the acti...
