Evaluation of Ribavirin–Poloxamer Microparticles for Improved Intranasal Absorption
Ribavirin is a water-soluble antiviral compound which, owing to its inability to cross the blood–brain barrier, has limited effectiveness in treating viruses affecting the central nervous system. Direct nose-to-brain delivery was investigated for ribavirin in combination with poloxamer 188, an excip...
