May a different kinetic mode explain the high efficacy/safety profile of inhaled budesonide?
2022, Pulmonary Pharmacology and TherapeuticsCitation Excerpt :This explanation is seemingly supported by clinical trials with higher and sustained systemic ICS administration to mimic the plasma level curve reached by inhalation (same total area under the time-plasma level curve). Such studies are available for BUD and FP, both showing lost efficacy without direct airway deposition [133,134]. This outcome may be relevant for FP, showing low plasma levels when inhaled (cf Fig. 3).
The pulmonary route as a way to drug repositioning in COVID-19 therapy
2021, Journal of Drug Delivery Science and TechnologyCitation Excerpt :The review published by Anderson brings several examples of drugs that were administered by oral or intravenous route and became available as inhaled in order to reduce side-effects, dose, and allow a prophylactic treatment [54]. A classic example was budesonide, where the oral and aerosol formulations were compared and only the inhaled form showed antiasthmatic effect, proving that its local action in the airways was better than systemic activity after absorption [55]. The repurpose of iloprost (Ilomedin®) was also interesting.
Repurposing drugs as inhaled therapies in asthma
2018, Advanced Drug Delivery ReviewsCitation Excerpt :A new steroid, budesonide, was patented in 1973 and became available commercially in 1981 [77] and investigated in children [77–79] and adults [80] during the mid- 1980s. The oral and aerosol formulations of budesonide were compared and the inhaled form only was found to be efficacious [81]. The budesonide was developed for delivery as a dry powder from a breath actuated device known as the Turbuhaler [82].
Do airway clearance mechanisms influence the local and systemic effects of inhaled corticosteroids?
2008, Pulmonary Pharmacology and TherapeuticsCitation Excerpt :The pulmonary available drug will ultimately become absorbed into the systemic circulation, where it may exert systemic (side) effects. For inhaled asthma and COPD medication, the lung is the target and clear relationships between the dose reaching and absorbed by the lungs and its clinical effect has been established for β2-agonists [16] and inhaled steroids [17–20]. It has also been possible to document a difference in clinical effects for different inhalers of the same drug [16–18], suggesting the obvious: differences in lung deposition for different inhalers will translate into differences in local therapeutic effect.
