A review of recent developments in the treatment of respiratory diseases through the direct administration of drugs.
12 articles by researchers review the most recent developments in treating respiratory diseases through the direct administration of drugs. The contributors investigate the usefulness of the pulmonary presentation of beta-agonists, steroids, and cromoglycate and the susceptibility to chemical damage from the environment, showing that the lung is far from being a passive organ. Other topics discussed include the importance of mucus in humidification, particle capture and particle removal, and the practical problems of drug delivery using the metered dose inhaler, the powder inhaler and the jet nebulizer.

Trefor Jones currently teaches economics at the School of Management at UMIST. He has significant experience of teaching at undergraduate and postgraduate levels both in economics and business/management environments.
