Abstract:
Multidisciplinary research has been conducted on novel drug delivery technologies to maximize therapeutic advantages while curtailing undesirable reactions. Drugs under BCS Class II often have a low bioavailability because the dissolution phase limits the absorption efficiency. In this review, risperidone was used as a pharmacological model to examine the impact of solubility enhancement at the primary administration site for such pharmaceuticals. For tackling drug-related pertains like disease diagnostics, therapy, and prophylactic measures at the cellular or molecular levels, implementing nanocarriers in therapeutics has significant potential. The comprehensive pharmaceutical compositions of risperidone nano-microparticles that have been developed to alleviate psychosis are highlighted in the study, which also illustrates potential future developments in such domains.

Drug Delivery: Miscellaneous Routes
Oral inhalation and nasal sprays swiftly transfer drugs across the respiratory epithelium's mucosal layer. Inhaled glucocorticoids and bronchodilators directly target lung conditions such as asthma, while fluticasone nasal spray mitigates allergic rhinitis.

Routes of Drug Administration: Parenteral
The intravenous route (IV) of drug administration can be further categorized into two types. The bolus injection administers the entire dose rapidly, while an intravenous infusion slowly delivers smaller doses steadily.
The IV route is often...
Additional Routes of Drug Administration
Administering drugs via inhalation allows for the direct delivery of gaseous, volatile substances or droplets to different parts of the respiratory tract. One of the advantages of the inhalation route is the rapid absorption of drugs into the circulatory system, which is possible because of the large surface area of...
