Preparation, optimization, and in vivo evaluation of an inhaled solution of total saponins of Panax notoginseng and its protective effect against idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Drug Delivery, 2020
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic and progressive pulmonary disease that can cause fibrotic remodeling of the surrounding lung, thus leading to respiratory failure. Although IPF is the most common form of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia,
