Dry Powder Inhalers: From Bench to Bedside
Journal of Aerosol Medicine and Pulmonary Drug Delivery, 2023Dry powder inhalers (DPIs) are now widely prescribed and preferred by the majority of patients. These devices have many advantages over the traditional pressurized metered-dose inhaler (pMDI) but they do have disadvantages. The characteristics of the dose emitted from a DPI are affected by the inhalation manoeuvre used by a patient.

Developing Dry Powder Inhaler Formulations
Journal of Aerosol Medicine and Pulmonary Drug DeliveryThis section aims to provide a concise and contemporary technical perspective and reference resource covering dry powder inhaler (DPI) formulations. While DPI products are currently the leading inhaled products in terms of sales value, a number of confounding perspectives are presented to illustrate why they are considered surprisingly, and often ...

Pulmonary tract is one of the oldest routes used for administration of drugs. During the past decade, the lung has been very attractive for achieving systemic and local absorption of various drugs, particularly for those drugs that exhibit poor bioavailability when administered by the oral or parenteral route.

Exhalation immediately before inhalation optimizes dry powder inhaler use
Journal of Asthma, 2015Although exhalation immediately prior to inhalation (EPI) from dry powder inhalers (DPIs) is universally advised, its benefit has not been investigated. The objective of this study to assess the effects of EPI on inhaled flow from a DPI.We measured peak inhaled flow rate (PIFR) and inhaled gas volume of 25 volunteers unfamiliar with DPIs.

Dry-Powder Inhalers in Acute Asthma
Therapeutic Delivery, 2013An updated literature search was performed to evaluate the efficacy of rapid-acting β2-agonists delivered via dry powder inhalers in the treatment of moderate-to-severe acute asthma. Databases were searched from 1985 up to December 2012. A total of 23 randomized, double-blind or open clinical studies in acute asthma comparing the efficacy of a dry ...

Dry Powder Inhalers: Advantages and Limitations
Journal of Aerosol Medicine, 1991New inhalers have been developed because of difficulty of using the conventional metered dose inhaler (MDI) and because of the impending ban on CFC's. Dry powder inhalers (DPI's) in general are easier to use than the MDI and cause fewer irritant effects.

Dry powder inhalers for pulmonary drug delivery
Expert Opinion on Drug Delivery, 2004The pulmonary route is an interesting route for drug administration, both for effective local therapy (asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or cystic fibrosis) and for the systemic administration of drugs (e.g., peptides and proteins). Well-designed dry powder inhalers are highly efficient systems for pulmonary drug delivery. However, they are

Inhalation Performance Analysis of Dry Powder Inhaler
International Journal of Pharmaceuticals, Nutraceuticals and Cosmetic ScienceDry powder inhalers (DPIs) are commonly used to treat respiratory diseases, particularly asthma, lung cancer, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, by delivering medications directly to the lungs. This review explores the influence of key formulation parameters such as particle size, morphology, surface roughness, and excipients on the inhalation ...
