Who Nose How Far Nasal Delivery Can Go?

Faced with surging drug development costs and fierce generic competition, pharmaceutical companies are under increasing pressure to find ways to increase and prolong the profitability of both existing and new products. In addition, many of the advanced molecules being developed by biotechnology companies require more efficient delivery than that offered by conventional delivery routes and systems. The challenge of optimising the bio-availability and patient compliance of these expensive molecules are other significant drivers for the development of novel drug delivery systems.
