Post N°4*


Today, the science is advancing by leaps and bounds, new techniques are emerging every day in all areas, which means that scientists have to learn and move forward, or will be left behind, and my career is no exception.
The Nano Pharmacy is a specific branch of pharmacy, born from the union of pharmacy with nanotechnology, this is a science that explores the nano world and the use it can have in medicine.
Some examples of this are the anesthesia that acts against sciatic pain which is  composed by nano-particles that react with a laser, being capable of  biodegrade in the body. Another example are the gold nano-particles used to release the diabetes medication in the patient.
This new type of technology can be an  alternative that act as  an analog of some treatments.
Techniques such as those mentioned above are used to treat different diseases such as diabetes or chronic pain in local areas. In my career, this is a relatively new field of research, related to new ways of introducing medication to the patient.
I chose this topic because when I discover how this can act as an alternative to treat some diseases, I thought it would be extremely beneficial.
In the future, this technology would allow to implant the medication through the muscles, releasing the medication to the specific objective.
Being honest, I learned about this today while writing this blog.But with what respect to human welfare, this would be beneficial, since an alternative analogous to some treatments, with specific control such as this technology, could help improve  health, preventing some side-effects ,this because the increase in specificity that would mean a decrease in the applied dose.
As I said that this technology would be an alternative to some treatments, it is less invasive and could help control the distribution an release of the medication in to the human body.
