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

Page 6: Nasal Drug Delivery System

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

Page 11: Nasal Drug Delivery System

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

•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.

Cont..

Atomization results in higher bioavailability than either spray or drops.

For this reason, nasal pharmaceuticals come with atomized drug delivery systems.

Page 21: Nasal Drug Delivery System

Physiological

effects

- Drug metabolism in the respiratory

tract & reduction of systemic effect

- Mucociliary transport causing

increased or decreased drug residence

time

- Protein binding

Page 22: Nasal Drug Delivery System

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.

Page 27: Nasal Drug Delivery System

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.

Page 31: Nasal Drug Delivery System

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.

Page 32: Nasal Drug Delivery System

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

Current systemic therapeutics delivered nasally

Desmopressin for diabetes mellitus

Calcitonin for osteoporosis

Sumatriptan for migraines

Nascobal for pernicious anemia

Nasal Drug Delivery medications

Drugs of interest in Intranasal systems:

Intranasal naloxone (Narcan)

Intranasal midazolam (Versed)

Page 36: Nasal Drug Delivery System

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

Page 37: Nasal Drug Delivery System

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%

Page 43: Nasal Drug Delivery System

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

Page 44: Nasal Drug Delivery System

3. Delivery of diagnostic drugs

Diagnostic agents such as

Phenolsulfonphthalein – kidney function

Secretin – pancreatic disorders

Pentagastrin – secretory function of gastric

acid
