Abstract
In some aspects, the present disclosure provides dosage forms, such as oral drug dosage forms, configured to provide a desired release profile, the dosage forms comprising a multi-layered structure comprising a plurality of layers of a first erodible material admixed with a compound (e.g., a drug) or a reagent, wherein the first erodible material is embedded in a second material not admixed with the compound (e.g., the drug) or the reagent. In other aspects, the present disclosure provides methods of designing, such as obtaining a thickness and/or surface area of a layer comprising an erodible material admixed with a compound (e.g., a drug) or a reagent, and/or amount of the compound (e.g., the drug) or the reagent admixed in the erodible material, and methods of making, such as three-dimensional printing, dosage forms configured to provide desired release profiles.
