Pharmaceutical composition for inhalation

摘要

The present invention relates to a powder formulation which reduces side effect risk of a medicine having a side effect of drug-induced photodermatosis and increases therapeutic effect, and relates to the method for producing the same.;Said powder formulation makes inhalation therapy possible by carrying out aerosolization easily, and since pharmacological effect in lung local part is increased, it is possible to decrease the dose. Skin transmigration of said medicine is controlled by a lung specific delivery technology, and photodermatosis which is a side effect can be controlled.
