What are the Potential Applications of Nanotechnology in Corticosteroid Delivery?
1. Respiratory Diseases: Nanocarriers can be used to deliver corticosteroids directly to the lungs, improving treatment for conditions like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). 2. Autoimmune Diseases: Targeted delivery systems can enhance the treatment of autoimmune diseases by delivering corticosteroids specifically to affected tissues, reducing systemic immunosuppression. 3. Ophthalmic Conditions: Nanoformulations of corticosteroids can be used to treat eye diseases, providing sustained release and reducing the need for frequent dosing.
