Patient perspectives when switching from Cosopt® (dorzolamide-timolol) to Azarga™ (brinzolamide-timolol) for glaucoma requiring multiple drug therapy
BACKGROUND This study aimed to determine the impact of switching patients requiring multiple drug treatment from the dorzolamide-timolol fixed combination to the brinzolamide-timolol fixed combination and potential effects on tolerability and compliance. METHODS Patients were switched from dorzolamide-timolol to brinzolamide-timolol and questioned within a period of 4-26 weeks. Questions were...
متن کاملInvestigation of drug release from paclitaxel loaded polylactic acid nanofibers
Objective(s): In this study, drug loaded electrospun nanofibrous mats were prepared and drug release and mechanism from prepared nanofibers were investigated. Materials and Methods: Paclitaxel (PTX) loaded polylactic acid (PLA) nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning. The effects of process parameters, such as PTX concentration, tip to collector distance, voltage, temperature and flow rate...
متن کاملExtended Release of Timolol from Ethyl Cellulose Microparticles Laden Hydrogel Contact Lenses
Glaucoma is a second leading cause of blindness globally after cataract, which is managed through eye drops, which are highly inefficient due to a low bioavailability of less than 1-5%. Frequent administration of eye drops leads to incompliance in patients, so there is a great need for medical device such as contact lenses to treat glaucoma. The objective of research was to provide sustained oc...
متن کاملMagnetically triggered release of molecular cargo from iron oxide nanoparticle loaded microcapsules.
Photothermal release of cargo molecules has been extensively studied for bioapplications. For instance, microcapsules decorated with plasmonic nanoparticles have been widely used in in vitro assays. However, some concerns about their suitability for some in vivo applications cannot be easily overcome, in particular the limited penetration depth of light (even infrared). Magnetic nanoparticles a...
متن کاملEnhanced neurotrophin-3 bioactivity and release from a nanoparticle-loaded composite hydrogel.
Neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) has shown promise in regenerative strategies after spinal cord injury; however, sustained local delivery is difficult to achieve by conventional methods. Controlled release from poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles has been studied for numerous proteins, yet achieving sustained release of bioactive proteins remains a challenge. To address these issues, we des...
