Liposomal Drug Delivery: Therapeutic Applications in Chronic Respiratory Diseases

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Advanced Drug Delivery Strategies for Targeting Chronic Inflammatory Lung Diseases

Abstract

Chronic respiratory diseases include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary tuberculosis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), cystic fibrosis, asthma, and lung cancers. These diseases have high mortality and morbidity rates. These persistent disorders are fatal in majority of the cases, and in advance stages, the damage done is non-repairable, almost null. There is still a significant need to carry out extensive research studies to establish liposomes as the most preferred drug carrier, especially for respiratory system related disorders. Therefor they seem to hold promise with their tremendous potential of targeting the desired site in the studies done so far.
