Abstract




Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has garnered increasing attention in the last ten years due to its potential applications in biological or genetic data analysis, drug discovery acceleration, and the identification of rare or selected molecules. AI has become a disruptive force in the healthcare industry, providing creative ways to improve medicine delivery systems. AI-driven medication delivery systems optimize drug administration, leading to better therapeutic outcomes using machine learning algorithms and data-driven insights. The crucial role of artificial intelligence in medication delivery is examined, which also highlights how AI may improve drug formulation, precision dosage, and personalized medicine. By lowering side effects, raising treatment efficacy, and opening the door for the creation of innovative medications, the combination of AI with drug delivery holds the potential to completely transform the healthcare industry through various applications in personalized medicine, targeted drug delivery, drug formulation, optimization and improving efficiency, etc.
