diseases or as the route of administration for systemic therapies, the lung is a very attractive target for drug delivery table the lung provides direct access to the site of disease for the treatment of respiratory illness, without the inefficiencies and unwanted effects of systemic drug delivery in addition, it terbinafine cystine provides an enormous surface area and a relatively low enzymatic environment for the absorption of drugs to treat systemic diseases table inhaled medications have been available for crixivan picture of product many years for the treatment of lung diseases inhalational delivery has been widely accepted as being the optimal route of administration of first line therapy for asthmatic and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases drug formulation plays an important role in producing an effective inhalable medication in addition to being terbinafine cystine pharmacologically active, it is important that a drug be efficiently delivered into the lungs, to the appropriate site of action and remain in the lungs until the desired pharmacological effect occurs a drug designed to treat a terbinafine cystine systemic disease, such as insulin for diabetes, must be deposited in the lung terbinafine cystine periphery to ensure maximum systemic bioavailability for gene therapy, anti cancer or terbinafine cystine anti infective treatment, cellular uptake and prolonged residence in the lungs of the terbinafine cystine drug may be required to obtain the optimal therapeutic effect thus, a terbinafine cystine formulation that is retained in the lungs for the desired length of time terbinafine cystine and avoids the clearance mechanisms of the lung may be necessary the human lung contains airways and approximately million alveoli with a surface area of m, equivalent to that of a tennis court as a major port of table advantages of pulmonary delivery of drugs to treat respiratory and systemic disease treatment of respiratory diseasestreatment of systemic diseases deliver high drug concentrations directly to the disease site minimizes risk of systemic side effects rapid clinical terbinafine cystine response bypass the barriers to therapeutic efficacy, such as poor gastrointestinal absorption and firstpass metabolism in the liver achieve a similar or superior therapeutic terbinafine cystine effect at a fraction of the systemic dose for example, oral salbutamol mg terbinafine cystine is therapeutically equivalent to xg by mdi a noninvasive needlefree delivery system terbinafine cystine suitable for a wide range of substances from small molecules to very large terbinafine cystine proteins enormous absorptive surface area m and a highly permeable membrane to terbinafine cystine fim thickness in the alveolar region large molecules with very low absorption rates terbinafine cystine can be absorbed in significant quantities the slow mucociliary clearance in the terbinafine cystine lung periphery results in prolonged residency in the lung a less harsh, low terbinafine cystine enzymatic environment avoids firstpass metabolism reproducible absorption kinetics pulmonary delivery is independent terbinafine cystine of dietary complications, extracellular enzymes and interpatient metabolic differences that affect gastrointestinal absorption entry, the lung has evolved to prevent the invasion of unwanted airborne terbinafine cystine particles from entering into the body airway geometry, humidity, mucociliary clearance and alveolar macrophages play a vital role in maintaining the sterility of the lung, and consequently, they can be barriers to the therapeutic effectiveness of inhaled medications the size of the drug particle can play an important take vitamins with caffeine role in avoiding the physiological barriers of the lung and targeting to the appropriate lung region fig nanoparticles are solid colloidal particles ranging in size from to terbinafine cystine nm studies have demonstrated that they are taken up by macrophages, cancer cells, and epithelial cells their small size ensures the particles containing the active terbinafine cystine pharmacological ingredient will reach the alveolar regions however, the use of an aerosol terbinafine cystine delivery system that generates nanosized particles for inhalation, places these particles at terbinafine cystine risk of being exhaled, leaving very few drug particles to be deposited in the periphery of the lung residence time is not long enough for the particles to be deposited by sedimentation or diffusion aerosols as drug carriers diffusionseemntationinertia!
