Overview of Medication Repurposing
Medication repurposing, also known as drug repositioning, involves investigating existing drugs for new therapeutic purposes beyond their original indication. This approach offers a faster, more cost-effective path to drug development compared to traditional methods, as the safety, dosage, and pharmacokinetic profiles of these drugs are already well-established. It holds significant promise, especially in complex diseases like cancer, where new treatments are urgently needed.
This platform aims to highlight successful cases of drug repurposing, providing detailed information on original uses, new applications, supporting scientific evidence, and potential benefits and risks.
