Technological parameters for the effective encapsulation of n-(1-phenethyl-4-piperidyl)propionanilide in poly(lactid-co-glycolide) (PLG) nanoparticles have been determined. Depending on the ratio of drug fractions adsorbed on the particle surface and associated with the polymer matrix, n-(1-phenethyl-4-piperidyl)propionanilide (200 microg/kg, i/m) loaded PLG nanospheres
