Abstract
Methods and compositions are described for the treatment of inflammatory diseases including the use of liposomes to deliver non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Drugs may be encapsulated in the liposomes during their preparation, or alternatively, are combined with the liposomes following their formation. The composition may include glycolipids such as galactolipids including digalactosyl diglyceride, and the liposomes may be made by a number of procedures. The compositions may be administered to mammals including humans.
