Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We attempted to establish a new method for preparing drug solid nanoparticles, and succeeded in preparing a high quality dispersion containing cilostazol (CLZ) nanoparticles. In addition, the instillation of the ophthalmic dispersions containing CLZ nanoparticles suppresses retinal vasoconstriction in endothelin-1-injected rats. It is possible that an ocular drug delivery system using drug nanoparticles may expand their usage as therapy in the glaucoma patient.
