Mechanism of action | The drug powder is aerosolized by the patient's respiratory airflow or powered by a power device and delivered to the lungs. | Drugs and propellants are ejected in the form of mist and reach the lungs as the patient inhales them. | The drug is dispersed into mist droplets or particles through a special device. |

For peptide and protein samples, such as calcitonin, we can prepare coarse powder by freeze-drying, and then spray-mill to produce inhalable particles.
A solution containing active drug molecules can be spray dried in one step to obtain dry fine powder, which is suitable for the preparation of DPI for polypeptide and protein drugs.
For thermally unstable drugs (such as proteins, peptides and DNA, etc.), we can use spray freeze-drying technology to make the prepared particles have better stability and dispersion.
In order to obtain micro powder with suitable particle size, we treat the peptide or protein solution and mix it with a supercritical fluid (such as carbon dioxide). The SCF containing the solute is rapidly decompressed, which will cause the solute to form a highly supersaturated state and generate a large number of fine crystals.
With years of experience and a dedicated team of experts, CD Formulation specializes in creating innovative and customized inhalation formulations for peptides and proteins. If you'd like to discuss how we can help advance your peptide or protein candidate's lung delivery application, please contact us. We are happy to explore innovative solutions tailored to your unique molecules and goals.
