Nanostructured Aerosol Particles: Fabrication, Pulmonary Drug Delivery, and Controlled Release

Nanostructured Aerosol Particles: Fabrication, Pulmonary Drug Delivery, and Controlled Release

Pulmonary drug delivery is the preferred route of administration in the treatment of respiratory diseases and some nonrespiratory diseases. Recent research has focused on developing structurally stable high-dosage drug delivery systems without premature release. To maximize the deposition in the de...
