The encapsulation of glucocorticoids, such as dexamethasone, in nanoparticles (NPs) faces two main issues: a low drug loading and the destabilization of the nanoparticle suspension due to drug crystallization. Here, we successfully formulated a prodrug of dexamethasone, dexamethasone palmitate (DXP)
