Pulmonary drug delivery
25 – 100 μl
Advantages Disadvantages
• Portable • Inefficient and drug delivery
• Low cost • On actuation 1st droplets very fast
• Disposability (30 m/s)
• Many doses (up to 200) • Mean droplet size 40μm – shrinks as
• Inert condition of propellant protects drug propellant evaporates
• Can take 5s to get to original size of
micronized drug
• Incorrect use of MDI use
Pressurised metered-dose inhalers + spacer
Spacer- approach
• Inhalation/actuation coordination
• Premature deposition due to large particles
• Reduces droplet velocity
• Propellant evaporation
Disadvantages (spacer)
• Bulky
Other approaches
• Breath-actuated inhalers
• (e.g. Syncroner®, Autoinhaler®)
Dry powder inhaler (DPI)
Advantages
• Propellant free
• No excipient except lactose as carrier
• Breath actuated avoid inhalation/actuation
issues
• Deliver larger dose > MDIs
Disadvantages
• Patient required to inhale sufficiently to
• Deaggregate particles
• Drug exposed to ambient conditions (drug
stability, e.g. humidity powder aggregate)
• DPI less efficient at delivering drug, 2x MDI
