Nasal Drug Delivery: An Overview
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmaceutical Science and Technology - Year 2010, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Nasal drug delivery has occupied an important place in the field of drug delivery technology. Nasal mucosa owing to its high vascularity and thin epithelial membrane, is being widely explored for drug administration. This route acts as an efficient alternative to parenteral route. Despite many barriers associated with this route such as mucociliary clearance, nasal enzymes, etc., nasal mucosa provides rapid onset of drug action and hence faster therapeutic effect.
