INVASIVE METHODS
Generally, only low molecular weight, lipidsoluble molecules and a few peptides and
nutrients can cross this barrier to any significant
extent, either by passive diffusion or using
specific transport mechanisms. (Grieg, 1987)

NON-INVASIVE APPROACHES
A variety of non-invasive brain drug delivery
methods have been investigated, that make
use of the brain blood vessel network to gain
widespread drug distribution.
Noninvasive techniques usually rely upon
drug manipulations which may include
alterations as prodrugs, lipophilic analogues,
chemical drug delivery, carrier-mediated
drug delivery, receptor/vector mediated drug
delivery etc. (Byrne et al, 2002)

CONCLUSION
Even though a lot of strategies have been
developed to deliver drug into brain to treat
brain tumors and other abnormalities treatment,
none of them have showed to be suitable in each
and every case of CNS disorders.
This is due to the brain physiology which
presents unique challenges, made up of tight
regulation of what can enter the brain space and
limited distribution of substances along
extracellular fluid flow pathways.
