Bioadhesive Microspheres for Tuberculosis Drug Delivery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that mainly affects the lungs. For the treatment of tuberculosis, conventional drug delivery system fails to achieve efficient drug delivery system fails to achieve efficient drug delivery at the target site. Today, bioadhesive microspheres became a topic of great interest as a novel carrier for drug delivery. Bioadhesive microspheres offers longer retention time, sustained drug delivery along with patient compliance. Bioadhesive microspheres overcome the various drawbacks associated with conventional drug delivery system for the treatment of tuberculosis. Bioadhesive microspheres considered as a remedial measure which facilitate site-specific drug delivery to a great extent. The present review address the potential application of bioadhesive microspheres as a novel carrier for drug delivery of anti–TB drugs to achieve desired therapeutic results in tuberculosis treatment.

In the long-term management of ulcerative colitis patients, repeat dosing maybe required. Since 5-ASA is largely absorbed from the upper intestine, selective delivery of drugs into the colon may be regarded as a better method of drug delivery with fewer side effects and a higher efficacy. The aim of this study was to prepare and evaluate a double coated multiparticulate system for 5-ASA deliver...
