Physico-Chemical, In Vitro and Ex Vivo Characterization of Meloxicam Potassium-Cyclodextrin Nanospheres

Nasal drug delivery has many beneficial properties, such as avoiding the first pass metabolism and rapid onset of action. However, the limited residence time on the mucosa and limited absorption of certain molecules make the use of various excipients necessary to achieve high bioavailability. The ap...
