In developing a drug delivery strategy, issues of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination must be considered. The eye presents unique opportunities and challenges when it comes to the delivery of pharmaceuticals. While absorption by this route is bungling, there are few side effects with conventional ocular dosage forms. Hence, ocular inserts were prepared with prolonged release o...

In the past decade, many strategies have been developed to enhance oral drug delivery. Different techniques were investigated, amongst those the use of permeation enhancers such surfactants and biodegradable polymers were studied more extensively. Chitosan derivatives have been studied as permeation enhancer in free soluble form and as nanoparticulate systems. The aim of the current work wa...

The aim of this study is to formulate a novel ophthalmic nanosuspension (ONS), an alternative carrier system to traditional colloidal carriers for controlled release (CR) of acyclovir (ACV). In the present study, ONS is employed to avoid some of major disadvantages of colloidal carriers systems such as instability in cul de sac and short half life by increasing efficiency of drug encapsulation ...

      Mucoadhesive polymers that bind to the gastric mucin or epithelial cell surface are useful in drug delivery for the purpose of increasing the intimacy and duration of contact of drug with the absorbing membrane. Several synthetic polymers are in use for this purpose. Since the biodegradability of the synthetic polymers are questionable, in this investigation, an oral mucoadhesive controll...

      In order to enhance in vitro dissolution and content uniformity of poorly soluble drug glimepiride by preparing solid dispersions using modified solvent fusion method, solid dispersions of drug were prepared by modified fusion solvent method using PEG 6000 and PVP K25 (as carrier). Eight batches (F1-F8) were prepared by Factorial design (23) by taking three ...

Objective: The study is centered on formulation and evaluation of low viscosity metronidazole gel with varying amount Carbopol. Methods: Formulations (F1, F2 F3) Metronidazole in form were done amounts Prepared gels inspected for surface pH, viscosity, spreadability, antimicrobial susceptibility, drug content percentage, vitro process release, release kinetics stability testing. Findings: Formu...

The goal of this study was to design and evaluate extended - release system of the hypnotic agent, Zolpidemtartrate usefulness for the treatment of insomnia. The half-life of this drug is about 1.9 - 3 hours that indicatingit a candidate for the extended release formulation. Our investigation relates to development of extendeddrug delivery system based on Hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose (HPMCK4...

the aim of the present work was to prepare and characterize biopolymer nanocarriers and evaluate their suitability in possible oral delivery of insulin. the egg albumin biopolymer was used to prepare nanoparticles which were further characterized by fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (ftir), transmission electron microscopy (tem), scanning electron microscopy (sem), zeta potential, dynam...
