Abstract
This review discusses the challenges in drug delivery and the potential benefits of Chronomodulated drug delivery for antiasthmatic drugs. It explores new drugs, personalized medicine approaches, and future directions in asthma treatment, such as immunotherapy and gene therapy. The analysis also discusses the risks of gene therapy for severe asthma and its potential benefits, such as improved medication effectiveness and reduced side effects. Chronomodulated drug delivery, which involves administering medications at specific times to align with the body's natural rhythms, has shown promising results in improving asthma control and reducing the frequency and severity of attacks. For instance, a study found that administering a Chronomodulated antiasthmatic drug in the morning, when lung function is typically at its lowest, significantly improved drug absorption and bioavailability compared to regular drug delivery. This optimized drug delivery not only enhanced the medication's effectiveness but also reduced the need for frequent dosing and minimized side effects, leading to better overall asthma management.
