Impact of Natural-Based Viscosity Modifiers of Inhalation Drugs on the Dynamic Surface Properties of the Pulmonary Surfactant

Impact of Natural-Based Viscosity Modifiers of Inhalation Drugs on the Dynamic Surface Properties of the Pulmonary Surfactant

The effectiveness of inhalation therapy depends on aerosol size distribution, which determines the penetration and regional deposition of drug in the lungs. As the size of droplets inhaled from medical nebulizers varies depending on the physicochemical properties of the nebulized liquid, it can be a...
