MODULATION OF RELEASE FROM DRY POWDER FORMULATIONS
摘要
Particles which include a bioactive agent are prepared to have a desired matrix transition temperature. Delivery of the particles via the pulmonary system results in modulation of drug release from the particles. Sustained release of the drug can be obtained by forming particles which have a high matrix transition temperature, while fast release can be obtained by forming particles which have a low matrix transition temperature. Preferred particles include one or more phospholipids.
