Drug Delivery through Osmotic Systems – an Overview
نویسندگان
چکیده
The immediate release conventional dosage form lack in the efficiency of controlling the proper plasma drug concentration. This results in the development of various controlled drug delivery system. Among which the Pulsatile drug delivery systems (PDDS)/ osmotic drug delivery system (ODDS) are gaining importance as these systems deliver the drug at specific time as per the path physiological need of the disease, resulting in improved patient therapeutic efficacy and compliance. They work on the principle of osmotic pressure for controlling the delivery of the drug. The release of the drug is independent of physiological factors of the GIT to a large extent. This review highlights’ the theoretical concept of drug delivery, history, types of oral osmotic drug delivery systems, factors affecting the drug delivery system, advantages and disadvantages of this delivery systems ,theoretical aspects, applications, marketed status and last but not the least the recent development.

متن کاملOsmotic Drug Delivery System as a Part of Modified Release Dosage Form
Conventional drug delivery systems are known to provide an immediate release of drug, in which one can not control the release of the drug and can not maintain effective concentration at the target site for longer time. Controlled drug delivery systems offer spatial control over the drug release. Osmotic pumps are most promising systems for controlled drug delivery. These systems are used for b...

متن کاملUtilization of osmotic pressure as a driving force for delivery of pharmaceutical agents in a controlled pattern for a prolonged period
agents in a controlled pattern for a prolonged period of time is a well-established fact. The concept of osmotic drug delivery was first introduced by Theeuwes (1). The simplest design of an osmotic drug delivery system consists of an osmotically active core surrounded by a semipermeable membrane, with one or more delivery orifices through which the drug is delivered in a controlled fashion. Va...
