How Does Nanotechnology Improve Oral Drug Delivery?
Nanotechnology improves oral drug delivery by enhancing the solubility, stability, and permeability of drugs. Nanoparticles can protect active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) from degradation in the harsh gastrointestinal environment and facilitate their absorption through the intestinal lining. Additionally, nanocarriers can be engineered to target specific sites within the body, reducing side effects and improving therapeutic outcomes.
