ABSTRACT
Parenteral drug delivery systems are the preparations that are given other than oral route. (Para-outside, enteric–intestine). Parenteral drug delivery systems are most preferred drug delivery systems as they meet many benefits over other dosage forms in many cases such as unconsciousness, nausea, in emergency clinical episodes. The Parenteral administration route is the most common and efficient for delivery of active drug substances with poor bio-availability and the drugs with a narrow therapeutic index. But parenteral route offers rapid onset of action with rapid declines of systemic drug level. For the sake of effective treatment it is often desirable to maintain systemic drug levels within the therapeutically effective concentration range for as long as treatment calls for. It requires frequent injection, which ultimately leads to patient discomfort. For this reason, drug delivery system which can reduce total number of injection throughout the effective treatment, improve patient compliance as well as pharmacoeconomic. These biodegradable injectable drug delivery system offer attractive opportunities for protein delivery and could possibly extend patent life of protein drugs.Parenteral drug delivery system seeks to optimize therapeutic index by providing immediate drug to the systemic pool in required quantity to treat– cardiac attacks, respiratory attacks. This article explores various prolonged release parenteral drug delivery system and their strategies of preparation, their potential benefits/drawbacks and in-vitro testing methods.

ABSTRACT
The aim of the present study was to investigate the in-vitro release properties of Ziprasidone hydrochloride monohydrate from different topical vehicles. By the unique advantages over the traditional drug delivery, transdermal drug delivery is becoming increasingly important and has got a vital interest in pharmaceutical industries. An in vitro release experiment was designed to reveal the rate of release of ziprasidone hydrochloride monohydrate from four different topical vehicles: (i) cream; (ii) a gel; (iii) an ointment (iv) pronoisomal gel. In vitro release of ziprasidone hydrochloride monohydrate from the four bases was monitored spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 318 nm. In vitro release study results showed that the release of drug from vehicles ranks according to the following order: gel> proniosomal gel> cream> ointment. Gel base showed considerably higher drug release than other vehicles. Five types of chemical enhancers was used in the study and among them tulsi oil was the best enhancer. As we increase the concentration of chemical enhancer the release of drug also increases. By monitoring and attempting to explain the many possible reasons for the different rates of drug release from the vehicles, it was hope that the experiment would confer essential information concerning factors affecting the release of drugs from topical formulations.
