Abstract

Nowadays, nanosuspension is a growing approach for pharmaceutical product development due to several unique properties applicable in pharmaceutical field. This article reviews the physical and chemical stability of nanosuspensions, their mechanism, and the factors which affect the stability. Some common factors responsible for nanosuspensions instability and few significant strategies used to overcome the stability problem are also discussed.

Keywords: Agglomeration, nanosuspension, ostwald ripening, stability issues, stability of nanosuspension, steric stabilization.
