Nature’s Multitool: Versatile Uses of Phospholipids in Advanced Drug Delivery Applications

Session details:

1. Phospholipids are safe and endogenous compounds that are the building blocks of biological membrane and mucosae,  making them exceptional excipients for high volume administration and sensitive patients, organs, and areas.
2. Beyond conventional emulsions and liposomes, we are seeing a large increase in innovative and important uses of phospholipids in pulmonary, long-acting injectable, oral, ophthalmic, and gene therapy drug products.
3. The functions of phospholipids include controlled release, bioavailability enhancement, barrier repair and maintenance, solubilization, carrier capabilities for inhalable drugs, depot gels, API protection and stabilization, and gene delivery.
