Nasal drug delivery technology is the administration of drug through the nasal route. The nasal cavity is an easily accessible route which is generally used for drug delivery. Drugs administered through the nasal route are available in different forms, such as liquid drops, liquid spray, aerosol, suspension spray and gel. The drugs are given in multi dose as well as single dose. Intranasal medicine administration offers a needleless solution to drug delivery. Nasal airway technology is to protect the lungs from harmful contacts, despite acting as a delivery route for drugs.
Market Determinants
Developing acceptance of self-administration practices and growth of over the counter nasal medications are major factors driving the growth of nasal drug delivery market. Moreover, rapid research, development and adoption of new drug delivery technologies and devices, fast onset of action, reformulation of oral drugs and injections into the formulations to be administered by nasal route are also driving the growth of nasal drug delivery market. However, drug formulation failure and technical barrier are restrain the market growth. Additionally, complications created due improper usage of nasal splashes also hamper the market growth. On the other hand, growth among over the counter nasal drugs and increasing focus on alternative routes of drug delivery such as nasal drug delivery, will offer impressive growth opportunities to players operating in this market.
