Nasal Drug Delivery
MedPharm has extensive expertise in nasal drug delivery formulation development in order to produce systemic or local drug delivery for a variety of diseases.
All formulations developed by MedPharm are being targeted towards maximum thermodynamic activity (i.e. saturated solubility) as this generally leads to a maximum driving force and greatest flux of the drug. Thus, the formulations to be developed should be:
- Stable,
- Non-irritant,
- Non-toxic,
- Non-odorous,
and achieve optimum delivery as solutions, suspensions or dry powders when applied in the form of the following nasal delivery systems:
- Drops,
- Sprays,
- Gels,
- Powders.
The Cell Culture Unit has the expertise to study the release and the absorption of the drug across the mucous membrane. (See in vitro studies)
