It is useful in several applications, such as for <a href="/wiki/Spinal_anesthesia" class="mw-redirect" title="Spinal anesthesia">spinal anesthesia</a>, <a href="/wiki/Chemotherapy" title="Chemotherapy">chemotherapy</a>, or <a href="/wiki/Pain_management" title="Pain management">pain management</a>. This route is also used to introduce drugs that fight certain infections, particularly post-neurosurgical. Typically, the drug is given this way to avoid being stopped by the <a href="/wiki/Blood%E2%80%93brain_barrier" title="Blood–brain barrier">blood–brain barrier</a>, as it may not be able to pass into the brain when given orally. Drugs given by the intrathecal route often have to be compounded specially by a pharmacist or technician because they cannot contain any preservative or other potentially harmful inactive ingredients that are sometimes found in standard injectable drug preparations. </p><p>Intrathecal pseudodelivery is a technique where the drug is encapsulated in a porous capsule that is placed in communication with the cerebrospinal CSF. In this method, the drug is not released into the CSF. Instead, the CSF is in communication with the capsule through its porous walls, allowing the drug to interact with its target within the capsule itself. This allows for localized treatment while avoiding systemic distribution of the drug, potentially reducing side effects and enhancing the therapeutic efficacy for conditions affecting the central nervous system. </p><p>The route of administration is sometimes simply referred to as "intrathecal"; however, the term is also an adjective that refers to something occurring in or introduced into the <a href="/wiki/Anatomic_space" title="Anatomic space">anatomic space</a> or <a href="/wiki/Potential_space" title="Potential space">potential space</a> inside a sheath, most commonly the <a href="/wiki/Arachnoid_membrane" class="mw-redirect" title="Arachnoid membrane">arachnoid membrane</a> of the <a href="/wiki/Brain" title="Brain">brain</a> or <a href="/wiki/Spinal_cord" title="Spinal cord">spinal cord</a><sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> (under which is the <a href="/wiki/Subarachnoid_space" class="mw-redirect" title="Subarachnoid space">subarachnoid space</a>).
