Aptar Pharma Talks Targeted Drug Delivery to the Upper Airways
9 Sep 2021
The nose and upper respiratory system function as a path for air to enter the body while contributing to olfactory function, conditioning the breathed-in air and removing debris. Serving as a primary contact point with the environment, they can be a route for the entry of contaminants or disease as well as a site for healing and protection using the latest targeted delivery technologies.

Drug Development and Delivery
Aptar Pharma’s novel PureHale® ready-to-use nebulizer-like technology was specifically developed to target the upper respiratory tract while minimizing deposition in the lower airways. PureHale provides a modern drug delivery technology option for the delivery of a fine mist for a variety of solutions to only the upper respiratory tract without significant deposition in the lungs and lower airways.
