چکیده

Nanotechnology has emerged as an tremendous field in the medicine.Nano refers to particles size range of 1-1000nm.Nanosuspensions are part of nanotechnology.Many of the drug candidates are exhibiting poor aqueous solubility. The use of drug nanosuspension is an universal formulation approach to increase the therapeutic performance of these drugs in any route of administration.A pharmaceutical nanosuspension is defined as very finely colloid,biphasic,dispersed, solid drug particles in an aqeous vehicle , size below 1μm ,without any matrix material , stabilized by surfactants and polymers, prepared by suitable methods for Drug Delivery applications, through various routes of administration like oral ,topical ,parenteral ,ocular and pulmanary routes. This review article describes the preparation methods,characterization and applications of the nanosuspensions.

Solidification of nanosuspensions for the production of solid oral dosage forms and inhalable dry powders.

INTRODUCTION Nanosuspensions combine the advantages of nanotherapeutics (e.g. increased dissolution rate and saturation solubility) with ease of commercialisation. Transformation of nanosuspensions to solid oral and inhalable dosage forms minimises the physical instability associated with their liquid state, enhances patient compliance and enables targeted oral and pulmonary drug delivery. AR...

Nano Suspension: a Novel Approch for Drug Delivery System

The poor water solubility of drugs is major problem for drug formulation. To date, nanoscale systems for drug delivery have gained much interest as a way to improve the solubility problems. The reduction of drug particles into the sub-micron range leads to a significant increase in the dissolution rate and therefore enhances bioavailability. Nanosuspensions are promising candidates that can be ...
