Drug delivery is that the method or process of administering a pharmaceutical compound to realize a therapeutic effect in humans or animals. For the treatment of human diseases, nasal and pulmonary routes of drug delivery are gaining increasing importance. Drug delivery is that the method or process of administering a pharmaceutical compound to realize a therapeutic effect in humans or animals. For the treatment of human diseases, nasal and pulmonary routes of drug delivery are gaining increasing importance. These routes provide promising alternatives to parenteral drug delivery particularly for peptide and protein therapeutics. For this purpose, several drug delivery systems are formulated and are being investigated for nasal and pulmonary delivery. These include liposomes, proliposomes, microspheres, gels, prodrugs, and cyclodextrins, among others. Nanoparticles composed of biodegradable polymers show assurance in fulfilling the stringent requirements placed on these delivery systems, like ability to be transferred into an aerosol, stability against forces generated during aerosolization, biocompatibility, targeting of specific sites or cell populations within the lung, release of the drug during a predetermined manner, and degradation within a suitable period of your time .Drug delivery technologies modify drug release profile, absorption, distribution and elimination for the advantage of improving product efficacy and safety, also as patient convenience and compliance. Drug release is from: diffusion, degradation, swelling, and affinity-based mechanisms. a number of the common routes of administration include the enteral (gastrointestinal tract), parenteral (via injections), inhalation, transdermal, topical and oral routes.
