PLGA NANOMEDICINE
Journal Title: Journal of Drug Delivery and Therapeutics - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
Poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) based nanoparticles are wildly used for the delivery of bioactive compounds such as dexamethasone, curcumin, azithromycin, doxorubicin and indocyanine green. It was found that those polymeric compounds can be effectively used for nanoparticle drug delivery. They are more biocompatible and lesser resistant in the case of targeted drug delivery. These are observed to have wide-ranging applications. Many of the PLGA polymers are being currently under research for commercial use and treatment. They have many fabrication techniques. It is imperative to understand their limitations in the future. There is a need for more research to overcome these limitations to develop drugs that are more efficient.
