POLYCAPROLACTONE AS DRUG CARRIER FOR AN ANTIFUNGAL AGENT

Environmental friendly carrier material for nifedipine as hypertension drug

Nifedipine is a hypertension drug must be consumed three times a day due to its low oral bioavailability. One way of developing a controlled drug delivery system is making nifedipine microcapsules by using environmentally friendly polymers of polylactic acid and polycaprolactone via the evaporation method using oil-in-water solvents. Polylactic acid and polycaprolactone can be said to be enviro...

Design and synthesizing appropriate carrier for release of dexamethasone as an anticancer drug

Introduction: One of the effective drugs in the treatment of cancer is dexamethasone. Dexamethasone is known as one of the safest glucocorticoid, but there is still side-effects, due to its hydrophobicity and low bioavailability. The purpose of the present study is to design a controlled release carrier for dexamethasone in order to overcome constraints and reduce side effects. Materials and Me...

Formulation and In-vitro Evaluation of Tretinoin Microemulsion as a Potential Carrier for Dermal Drug Delivery

In this study, tretinoin microemulsion has been formulated based on phase diagram studies by changing the amounts and proportions of inactive ingredients, such as surfactants, co-surfactants and oils. The effects of these variables have been determined on microemulsion formation, particle size of the dispersed phase and release profile of tretinoin from microemulsion through dialysis membrane. ...
