The lack of safe and effective antiepileptic drugs is a persistent issue that could be addressed through the repurposing or further development of commonly available drugs. Due to high accuracy, low effort, and high cost, it is best to begin the search for alternative treatments with a theoretical chemical study. Continue reading
When nanotechnology is used in medicine, it makes it easier to find and treat a wide range of diseases. One of the oral options for treating multiple sclerosis (MS) is dimethyl fumarate (DMF). DMF has been shown to be effective in lowering inflammatory diseases; nevertheless, it is characterized by several undesirable side effects that reduce patient compliance and add financial obstacles.
