ABSTRACT:
A dry-powder inhaler (DPI) carries medication to lungs as a dry powder, useful against respiratory diseases. The current research was endeavoured to examine the capabilities of Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) as a pulmonary transporter for directing cefdinir to cystic fibrosis (CF). Functionalized MWCNTs were loaded with cefdinir to formulate DPI (F-CEF FMWCNTs DPI) having efficient treatment against lung infections and were evaluated successfully. The outcomes demonstrated that cefdinir loaded FMWCNTs were non-toxic and accomplished 79.73 % entrapment with better flow properties. The optimized formulation had Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter (MMAD), Fine particle fraction (FPF), and particle size of 3.45±0.09 µm, 58.52±1.06%, 5.25 ± 0.03 µm (CEF FMWCNT DPI) and 4. 29±0.16µm 38.74±1.02%, 7.54 ± 0.02 µm (C-DPI) respectively. The loaded nanotubes showed 72. 63 % release after 15 hours in a controlled manner. The outcome of work recognized a unique, simple, and stable product having improved drug loading and increased dispersibility of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) thus improved bioavailability at a lung infection place with less adverse actions.
