Role of essential oils in respiratory diseases through advanced and nanodrug delivery systems

Abstract In essential oils, there are several components including various volatile molecules, and these are used for bactericidal and virucidal action and are commonly used for the management of respiratory diseases. Advanced drug delivery methods such as liposome and niosome are gaining importance day by day. The major compositions of nanoparticles are biodegradable polymers that play an important role for the attainment of the stringent requirements of these delivery systems, like the ability to transfer aerosol(drug) to the targeted site.
