Advantages of inhaled therapy






Providing local effect of medications that
optimizes the desired therapeutic effects
Requiring the lower dose
Preferred characteristics
Fast onset of action
Low systemic bioavailability
Less side effects than orally or intravenously administered drugs

Development of inhalers
The effectiveness of aerosol



The effectiveness of an aerosol
is dependent on how much of
the medication actually reaches
the small peripheral airways of
the lungs

Physical mechanism of drug movement &

and short haul exhaled
Sedimentation

Impact (> 5 µm)
at upper airway and high flow rate
Fine-particle fraction (FPF)

Fine-particle fraction (FPF) is percentage of the
aerosol between 1–5 μm that deposits in the lung
Mean aerodynamic diameter (MMAD)
Deposit of particles by size
Particles > 8 µm are deposited in the oropharynx (90% absorbed)
Particles with size 5-8 µm are deposited in the large airways
Particles with size 2-5 µm are deposited in tracheobronchial region
Particles with size 1-2 µm are deposited in the alveolar region
Particles with size < 1 µm are passed expiration
Rau JL Jr. Respiratory care pharmacology. 2002
MMAD and GSD



Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter (MMAD) is
defined as the diameter at which 50% of the
particles by mass are larger and 50% are smaller
Geometric Standard Deviation (GSD) is a measure
of the spread of an aerodynamic particle size
distribution. Typically calculated as follows:
GSD = (d84/d16)1/2
d84 and d16 represent the diameters at which 84% and 16% of the aerosol mass are
contained, respectively, in diameters less than these diameters.

MMAD (d50)
MMAD =1 µm
MMAD =5 µm means ?

The calculated aerodynamic diameter that divides the
particles of an aerosol in half, based on the weight of the
particles.
By weight, 50% of the particles will be larger than the MMAD and 50% of the particles
will be smaller than the MMAD.

MMAD of 5 μm =?
50 % of the total sample mass will be present in particles having diameters less than 5
μm, and that 50 % of the total sample mass will be present in particles having an
diameter larger than 5 μm.
