Inhalable fucoidan microparticles combining two antitubercular drugs with potential application in pulmonary tuberculosis therapy [PDF]

, 2018
The pulmonary delivery of antitubercular drugs is a promising approach to treat lung tuberculosis. This strategy not only allows targeting the infected organ instantly, it can also reduce the systemic adverse effects of the antibiotics. In light of that,
