Our Technology Overview

The proprietary powder processing techniques developed by Nanotherapeutics improve the delivery of drugs that cannot normally be taken orally. Non-invasive delivery systems, such as improved oral, inhaled and nasal delivery are of particular importance for numerous drugs entering the marketplace which can only be administered by injection.

Many traditional drugs when given orally exhibit poor and/or highly variable bioavailability and are often accompanied by significant gastro-intestinal side effects.

Our technologies address these issues by:

• Providing a means to use non-invasive routes of administration rather than injection.
  

• Enhancing the systemic absorption (bioavailability) of insoluble compounds and macromolecules.
  

• Improving the consistency of absorption.
  

• Reducing the amount of dose required and potentially the frequency of dosing.
  
  

From a Pharmaceutical perspective Nanotherapeutics' technologies provide:

• Innovative methods to manufacture nanoparticle formulations with controlled particle size, morphology and surface properties to improve handling, dispersion and absorption.
  
• Sustained-release profiles up to 24 hours to improve patient compliance with drug regimens.
  
• Specific formulations to improve stability and shelf life.
