SLNs offer several benefits in drug delivery, including:
1. Improved Bioavailability: SLNs enhance the solubility and absorption of poorly water-soluble drugs, thereby increasing their bioavailability. 2. Controlled Release: The solid lipid matrix allows for the controlled release of the encapsulated drug, providing sustained therapeutic effects. 3. Reduced Toxicity: Being made from biocompatible lipids, SLNs reduce the risk of cytotoxicity and adverse reactions. 4. Protection of Sensitive Drugs: SLNs protect sensitive drugs from degradation by environmental factors such as light, moisture, or enzymatic activity.
