Nanostructured Lipid Carriers for Improved Delivery of Therapeutics via the Oral Route
Drug delivery via the oral route has always been challenging for poorly soluble drugs. Acid‐induced hydrolysis, enzymatic degradation, and poor mucosal absorbency remain the primary hiccups for effective oral delivery of medications. With the advent of nanotechnology, nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have emerged as a promising delivery carrier ...
