NOVEL OMEGA 3 CARRIER PREPARATIONS FOR INHALATION DRUG DELIVERY FOR TREATING LUNG INFLAMMATION

Inflammatory disorders of the lung are induced by COVID-19 disease, asthma, and numerous other disorders. Omega- 3 fatty acids (O3FA), particularly docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) or eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), have known anti-inflammatory and pro-resolving properties. Reduction of lung pathology and inflammation will be accomplished by a mixture incorporating O3FA that is suitable for nebulization using formulas and nebulization apparatus known in the art. The O3FA may be delivered in the form of ethyl esters (EE) or free fatty acid (FEA) oils or non- phosphate- containing glycerolipids or as phospholipids (PL) or as any other form known in the art. The mixture can also be delivered in any of the other forms of inhaled droplet or solids for inhalation known in the art. The patient will inhale for a therapeutically effective period of time to reduce inflammation and improve breathing.
