Aerosol Drug Administration

Aerosolized medications have an advantage over systemic medications due to the medicine not needing to pass directly through the digestive and circulatory system before reaching their target, the respiratory system. This allows aerosolized medications to have a more rapid onset of action than systemic medications. There are several devices that can be used in aerosol drug delivery and respiratory therapists must be knowledgeable in their indications, use, limitations, and disadvantages.
