The Benefits And Downsides To Liposome Manufacturing

By Katina Brady


When it comes to the diseases that a person can experience, there is a long list. And it is composed of different kinds. There are those that are common while some are very rare. Fortunately, most of these diseases can be cured. But sadly, there are also others that still has no cure and the worst part, these are the ones that are really deadly.

There are still many conditions that has no cure. And many researches continue their mission to find one. Along the way, they have discovered several methods that was supposed to work but is not as effective as they hoped it would be. For example, there is a the liposome transport. A vesicle that helps the drug to reach the affected organ or cell and directly administer the drug. There are many people who have encouraged liposome manufacturing because it is effective.

This might be a good way to target more fatal diseases such as cancer and diabetes. But just like any other means of treatment that is recently discovered. There is still no guarantee of the effectiveness. It would be better if you have an idea on the risks and the advantages of using this method.

If you think of benefits, one that is most profound would be the capacity that it has to boost the effectivity of the drug that is stored inside it. The capacity of the drug to heal was heightened because of the method it was transported to the body. And because it is not stable, it would have to be capsulized so that it will achieve stability.

The material fashioned into the liposome is the same as the cell membrane of the body. And because of this make up, it is a very safe means to carry medication to affected areas of the body. The other feature that is has is the flexible composition. It would not be easy to break it apart.

Most of the drugs being utilized by patients suffering from severe diseases are powerful and can be a toxic to the rest of the body. When it is carried by a liposome and it is also inside the capsule, the toxicity of the drug decreases. This also helps in shielding the rest of the tissues and the organs from harmful toxic that might be the cause of another condition.

It takes many years to perfect a certain method. And because this is just recently discovered, it is safe to say that the method is not yet even close to being perfect. The disadvantages that you will experience because of the treatment must be known before you try it. For example, there is the issue of hard solubility. It takes time for it to dissolve inside the system. And this could also mean that the effects cannot be felt until later.

It is true that the toxic can be decreased significantly. But there are also instances when leakages happen. It is still not considered as the perfect means to carry drugs. There are more times when it was not able to reach the destination and broke apart along the way.

Stability is very hard to achieve in terms of the liposome treatment. There are still many researches to be done before this can be achieved. Even when it is already in capsule, only a little number have succeeded in the stability test.
