New Danish/Italian research shows how medicine for the brain
can be absorbed through the nose. This paves the way to more effective
treatment of neurological diseases like Alzheimer's and tumors in the brain.
A big challenge in medical science is to get medicine into
the brain when treating patients with neurological diseases. The brain will do
everything to keep foreign substances out and therefore the brains of
neurological patients fight a constant, daily battle to throw out the medicine
prescribed to help the patients.
