Abstract

Liposomes formulations are designed to maximize the amount of poorly water-soluble active agent that can be carried by the liposome. Liposomes containing active agent in the lipid bilayer of the liposome, and/or entrapped within the liposome interior space in a micellar preparation are described. Methods of making such liposomes are presented.
