ABSTRACT
For thousands of years, nasal drug delivery has been practiced and has brought a new lease
on life. Nose cavity were considered as complementary path for systemic accessibility of
medicament those have limitation to administer it intravenously. This is because of porous
endothelial membrane, elevated blood flow, greater surface area, more penetration of certain
medicaments in the nose membrane, and ameliorates the patient's compliance with the quick
absorption of medicaments via this membrane. Also it confers quick onset of action,
enhanced patient acceptance and satisfaction, sustained activity when correlate with various
system of drug delivery. In a nasal drug delivery system, formulations such as nasal gel
achieved recent attention in a pharmaceutical domain possess multitudinous effects of other
nasal formulations like solids, liquids and sprays. The formulations of nasal gel are easy to
prepare, more apparently acceptable as it offers quick onset of action, avoids first pass
metabolism, minimum risk of side effects, elevated residence time, and enhanced patient
compliance. This review sets out to discuss benefits, drawbacks, method of preparation,
different additives used in nasal gel and evaluation parameters of nasal gel.
