Production process of liposomes.

Notes: Multiple lamellar vesicles (MLVs) can be produced and ready for implant after a suspension of lipophilic film in aqueous solution. In an alternative method, starting from MLVs, single lamellar vesicles can be obtained through extrusion, homogenization, freeze-drying, and spray-drying. The therapeutic agent can be incorporated directly in the starting phospholipidic film, during the extrusion process, or when the suspension obtained (labeled as remote loading).
