Orally inhaled products have well-known benefits. They allow for effective local
administration of many drugs for the treatment of pulmonary disease, and they allow for …

The pulmonary route offers an exceptional, non-invasive administration site for drug
delivery. The principal characteristics that make the lungs an appealing route for drug …

Dry powder inhalers may be employed for the delivery of drugs to the lungs for the treatment
of pulmonary and systemic diseases. Dry powder inhalers consist of a formulation, metering …

Dry powder inhalers (DPIs) have been available for delivering drugs to the lungs for over 30
years. In the last decade there has been a big increase in DPI development, resulting partly …

Past success of topical delivery to the lung stems more from the therapeutic nature of drugs
used rather than the delivery device. Both the pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI) and …

The pace of new research and level of innovation repeatedly introduced into the field of drug
delivery to the lung is surprising given its state of maturity since the introduction of the …

With the rapidly growing popularity and sophistication of inhalation therapy, there is an
increasing demand for tailor-made inhalable drug particles capable of affording the most …
