The nasal delivery of peptides and proteins.
Many drugs of the future will be therapeutically active peptides and proteins developed through recombinant-DNA technology. A major factor limiting their exploitation is the current lack of appropriate non-parenteral delivery systems. Nasal systems incorporating absorption enhancers may provide a convenient, efficient means of administering protein and peptide therapeutics.
