Intratympanic dexamethasone microcrystals/lidocaine‐loaded PLGA non‐spherical microparticles for local drug delivery to the inner ear

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Optimized lidocaine‐loaded PLGA non‐spherical particles (LPNMs) and dexamethasone microcrystals (DEX MCs) were prepared. They were then mixed in sodium hyaluronate solution to obtain a co‐delivery system, administrated in guinea pigs to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and biocompatibility of the system.
