Abstract

This chapter introduces sensors that can determine the drug amount in complex environments, including biological fluids such as sweat, tears, urine, plasma, etc. Determining the drug amount in the body is essential to understanding the function of the drug and its proper use. Today, analytical determination systems for a variety of drugs have undergone significant advances that improve sensitivity and selectivity. Among the analytical sensors, there are optical and electrochemical biosensors that have been used to measure clinically preferred drug molecules such as anticonvulsants, anticancer drugs, antibiotics, heart failure, cocaine, heroin, and (meth) amphetamine, etc. The development of digital healthcare devices and wearable electronic sensors over the past few years has revolutionized drug determination systems. Due to the importance of drug measurement, in the following, various sensors and the developments that have taken place in this field are mentioned.
