Abstract Bacterial conjunctivitis characterized as pink eye referred as an inflammation of an eye caused by the enlargement of blood vessels present in conjunctiva, resulting in a red or bloodshot appearance of the eyes. Topical ocular delivery is found to be useful in treating conjunctivitis, but to maintain an effective drug concentration at a site of action in order to achieve desired pha...

Preparation and characterization of thermoresponsive in-situ forming poloxamer hydrogel for controlled release of Nile red-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles. Nanoparticles (NPs) are cleared rapidly from systemic circulation and do not provide sustained action in most cases. To solve this problem, this investigation introduces an erodible in-situ forming gel system as potential vehicles for prolo...

A number of ways have been investigated for administration of antibacterial agents in dealing of plaque-initiated periodontal disease. These include prolonged release intrapocket devices which are inserted at diseased sites. Intrapocket drug delivery system was designed which contain Doxycycline Hyclate an antibacterial agent. The formulations were so developed with an aim to reduce the dose of...

Eye is the most vital organ of the body. To achieve effective ocular therapy, an adequate amount of active ingredients must be delivered and maintain at the site of action within the eye. The anatomical structure and the protective physiological process of the eye exert a formidable defense against ophthalmic drug delivery, leads to poor precorneal drug loss results in poor ocular by availabili...

In order to achieve prolong corneal contact time of norfloxacin (NFX) for treatment of extra ocular diseases, a pH triggered nanoparticulate in-situ gelling system was designed to explore dual advantage of nanoparticles and in-situ gelling system, for its ocular delivery. NFX loaded nanocarriers were developed by ionotropic gelation technique using chitosan as a matrix forming polymer, cross-li...
