In treating diseases of the respiratory tract, the direct administration of drugs has great advantages in terms of clinical efficiency. This book reviews the most important recent developments in drug delivery systems to the respiratory tract. Starting with a detailed description of lung strucure and function, successive chapters investigate the usefulness of the pulmonary presention of beta–agonists, steroids and chromoglycate, and explain metabolic function and susceptibility to chemical damage from the environment, showing that the lung is far from being a passive organ. Further contributions demonstrate the importance of mucus in humidification, particle capture and particle removal before attention is given to the practical problems of drug delivery and the commercially viable devices available to the pharmaceutical technologist: the metered dose inhaler, the powder inhaler, and the jet nebuliser. The final chapter examines the future role of intranasal delivery systems, based upon the principles described.

Synopsis:
12 articles by researchers review the most recent developments in treating respiratory diseases through the direct administration of drugs. The contributors investigate the usefulness of the pulmonary presentation of beta-agonists, steroids, and cromoglycate and the susceptibility to chemical damage from the environment, showing that the lung is far from being a passive organ. Other topics discussed include the importance of mucus in humidification, particle capture and particle removal, and the practical problems of drug delivery using the metered dose inhaler, the powder inhaler and the jet nebulizer.
