Introduction
Intranasal Medication administration offers a truly “Needleless” solution to drug delivery.
Therapy through intranasal administration has been an accepted a form of treatment in the Ayurvedic system of Indian medicine

Merits

Limitations
Once administered, rapid removal of
the therapeutic agent from the site
of absorption is difficult
Pathologic conditions such as cold or
allergies may alter significantly the
nasal bioavailability

NASAL ROUTE
- medical aspects
The respiratory tract, which includes the
nasal mucosa hypopharynx large airways & small airways
provides a relatively large mucosal surface area of approx. 100 m2 (in normal adult) for drug absorption

Pathways for nasal
absorption Absorption through the olfactory neurons
transneuronal absorption. Olfactory epithelium is
considered as a portal for substances to enter
CNS
Absorption into the cerebrospinal fluid
Absorption through the supporting cells & the
surrounding capillary bed
venous drainage
11
Nose brain pathway
The olfactory mucosa (smelling area in nose) is in direct contact with the brain and CSF.
Medications absorbed across the olfactory mucosa directly enter the brain.
This area is termed the nose brain pathway and offers a rapid, direct route for drug delivery to the brain.
Olfactory mucosa
Highly vascular nasal mucosa
BrainCSF

•Nasal secretion of adult : 5.5-6.5
•Infants and children: 5-6.7
•It becomes alkaline in conditions such as acute rhinitis, acute sinusitis.
•Lysozyme in the nasal secretion helps as antibacterial and its activity is diminished in alkaline pH

Factors Affecting Bioavailability
Delivery system characteristics: Nasal mucosal surface area coverage:
Larger surface area delivery = higher bioavailability.
Particle size: Particle size 10-50 microns adheres best to
the nasal mucosa. Smaller particles pass on to the lungs,
larger particles form droplets and run-out of the nose.
20
Cont..
Atomization results in higher bioavailability than either spray or drops.
For this reason, nasal pharmaceuticals come with atomized drug delivery systems.
21
Physiological
effects
- Drug metabolism in the respiratory
tract & reduction of systemic effect
- Mucociliary transport causing
increased or decreased drug residence
time
- Protein binding
22
Physiological
effects....
- Local or systemic effects of
propellants, preservatives, or carriers
- Local toxic effects of the drug
Eg., edema, cell injury, or altered
tissue defenses

Nasal Drops
26
Nasal drops are one of the most simple and convenient systems developed for nasal delivery.
The main disadvantage of this system is the lack of the dose precision and therefore nasal drops may not be suitable for prescription products.
It has been reported that nasal drops deposit human serum albumin in the nostrils more efficiently than nasal sprays.
Nasal sprays
27
Both solution and suspension formulations can be formulated into nasal sprays.
Due to the availability of metered dose pumps and actuators, a nasal spray can deliver an exact dose from 25 to 200 μm. The particles size and morphology(for suspensions)of the drug and viscosity of the formulation determine the choice of pump and actuator assembly.
Lincoln Pharma wins patent for a novel nasal drug delivery system Presently in India anti-vomiting treatments are
available in the conventional form of tablet and injection which take longer time to bring relief.
But now through LPL’s new Nasal Drug Delivery System, the patient can get immediate relief. LPL becomes the first company in India to introduce an anti-vomiting treatment in the form of a Nasal spray pump.
Stem Cell Nasal Spray for Parkinson Disease Significantly Improves Motor Function
Successful intranasal delivery of stem cells to the brains of rats with Parkinson disease yielded significant improvement in motor function and reversed the dopamine deficiency characteristic of the disease.
This was reported as a Rejuvenation Research in journal published by Mary Ann Liebert.
Mucosal Atomization Device (MAD)
Device designed to allow emergency personnel to delivery nasal medications as an atomized spray.
Broad 30-micron spray ensure excellent mucosal coverage.
31
Nasal PowderThis dosage form may be developed if solution and suspension dosage forms cannot be developed e.g., due to lack of drug stability.
The advantages to the nasal powder dosage form are the absence of preservative and superior stability of the formulation.
Local application of drug is another advantage of this system.
Nasal powder formulation depends on the solubility, particles size, aerodynamic properties and nasal irritancy of the active drug and /or excipients.
32
Nasal Gels Nasal gels are high-viscosity thickened solutions or
suspensions.
Advantages of a nasal gelReduction of post-nasal drip due to high viscosity,Reduction of taste impact due to reduced swallowing,Reduction of anterior leakage of the formulation,Reduction of irritation by using soothing/emollient excipients and target to mucosa for better absorption.
Nasal vaccines
33
Nasal mucosa is first site of contact with inhaled antigens and, therefore, its use for vaccination, especially against respiratory infections
Nasal vaccination is a promising alternative to the classic parenteral route, because it is able to enhance the systemic levels of specific immunoglobulin G and nasal secretary immunoglobulin A.
Examples of human efficacy of intranasal vaccines include those against influenza A and B virus, proteosoma influenza. Denovirusvectored influenza and parainfluenza virus
Intra nasal H1N1 vaccine Nasovac by Serum Institute
Current systemic therapeutics delivered nasally
Desmopressin for diabetes mellitus
Calcitonin for osteoporosis
Sumatriptan for migraines
Nascobal for pernicious anemia
35
Nasal Drug Delivery medications
Drugs of interest in Intranasal systems:
Intranasal naloxone (Narcan)
Intranasal midazolam (Versed)
36
Intranasal (IN) Naloxone Absorption of Intranasal naloxone almost as
fast as IV in both animal and human models
“Atomization” of medications show much better absorption via the Intranasal route
37
Examples of Intranasal Drug Delivery Systems
Intranasal sustained-release formulation Nasal absorption with Clofilium tosylate,
enkephalin analogs Short biological half-life
Tobispray Dry, metered-dose nasal aerosol Vasoconstrictor (tramazoline), steroid
(dexamethasone isonicotinate), antibiotic (neomycin sulfate)
Other examples are : Butorphanol, calcitocin, sumatriptan, Insulin,
Vaccine and brain targeting drugs.

Efficacy of cocaine by oral and intranasal administration Nasal : detect in plasma by 15 min, peak
concentration at 60 to 120 min, decrease gradually over the next 2 to 3h
Oral : not detected until 30 min, increased rapidly for the next 30 min
In vivo absorption of sulbenicillin, cephacetrile, cephazoline Oral : poor absorption because of high water
solubility Intranasal : ½ of im injection (% excretion in the urine

1. Delivery of non-peptide pharmaceuticals
Drugs with extensive pre-systemic metabolism,
such as
- progesterone
- estradiol
- propranolol
- nitroglycerin
- sodium chromoglyate
can be rapidly absorbed through the nasal mucosa
with a systemic bioavailability of approximately
100%
43
2. Delivery of peptide-based
pharmaceuticals
Peptides & proteins have a generally low oral
bioavailability because of their physico-chemical
instability and susceptibility to hepato-
gastrointestinal first-pass elimination
Eg. Insulin, Calcitonin, Pituitary hormones etc.
Nasal route is proving to be the best route for
such biotechnological products
44
3. Delivery of diagnostic drugs
Diagnostic agents such as
Phenolsulfonphthalein – kidney function
Secretin – pancreatic disorders
Pentagastrin – secretory function of gastric
acid
