Dr. Kelly’s Thoughts on Intranasal Therapies for Brain-Related Disorders
During the panel discussion, Dr. Kelly shared his expertise on intranasal therapies for brain-related disorders. He emphasized the potential of this delivery method in addressing various neurological conditions, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and depression. Dr. Kelly explained that intranasal therapies can bypass the blood-brain barrier, allowing for direct delivery of therapeutic agents to the brain.
The Advantages of Intranasal Therapies
According to Dr. Kelly, intranasal therapies offer several advantages over other delivery methods. They are non-invasive, which means they do not require injections or surgery. They also provide faster onset of action as the therapeutic agents are absorbed directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. Additionally, intranasal therapies can potentially reach higher concentrations in the brain compared to oral medications.
Oragenics’ Role in the Development of Intranasal Therapies
Oragenics is a pioneer in the development of intranasal therapies for brain-related disorders. The company’s proprietary technology, TheraMist, is a unique, aerosolized formulation technology that allows for the efficient and effective delivery of therapeutic agents through the nasal cavity.
