LIPOSOMES: A REVIEW
Suchal Vishal* and Bhandari Neeraj
ABSTRACT
Liposomes are microparticulatelipoidal vesicles which are under extensive investigation as drug carriers for improving the delivery of therapeutic agents. Due to new developments in liposome technology, several liposome-based drug formulations are currently in clinical trial, and recently some of them have been approved for clinical use. Reformulation of drugs in liposomes has provided an opportunity to enhancethe therapeutic indices of various agents mainly through alteration in their bio distribution. This review discusses the potential applications of liposomes in drug delivery with examples of
formulations approved for clinical use, and the problems associated with further exploitation of this drug delivery system.
Keywords: Liposomes, Microparticulatelipoidal.
