How Does Nanotechnology Enhance Anti-inflammatory Agents?
Nanotechnology enhances anti-inflammatory agents through several mechanisms:
Targeted Delivery: Nanocarriers can deliver drugs directly to the site of inflammation, reducing systemic exposure and side effects. Controlled Release: Nanoparticles can be engineered to release their payload over a specific period, ensuring sustained anti-inflammatory effects. Improved Solubility: Many anti-inflammatory drugs have poor solubility. Nanotechnology can improve their solubility and bioavailability.
