Abstract

The results indicate high and extended concentration of dissolved dexamethasone with DexNP, which can explain the greater and longer lasting effect of dexamethasone in the cyclodextrin nanoparticle drug delivery platform. Dexamethasone seems to fit the cyclodextrin nanoparticle suspension drug delivery platform with longer duration and higher concentrations in tear fluid than available commercial drops, while dorzolamide is less suitable.
