Facemasks and Aerosol Delivery In Vivo [PDF]

Journal of Aerosol Medicine, 2007
It has been shown in vitro that even a small air leak in the facemask can drastically reduce the efficiency of drug delivery. In addition, it has been shown that drug deposition on the face does significantly add to overall drug loss and has the potential of local side effects. The aim of this study is therefore to verify these findings in vivo.
