The development project of Università di Pavia is a fantastic example of combining excipients.

Mucoadhesive and thermo-responsive in situ gelling systems were developed for nasal delivery, using hydrophobically-modified hydroxypropyl-methyl cellulose (Sangelose, SG) and beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD) derivatives, for preventing viral respiratory infections.
