Intranasal route, ensuring suitable bioavailability of medicines under circumvention of the gastrointestinal degradation and hepatic first-pass elimination, has been a popular choice for drug delivery. Among nasal dosage forms, mucoadhesive solid inserts have been shown to resist mucociliary clearance and provide a prolonged nasal residence time. Hence, the purpose of this study was the prepara...

A multilayered hydrogel film system based on hyaluronic acid-cysteamine (HA-Cym) and polyvinylalcohol (PVA) was fabricated. It contained a drug-impermeable backing layer, a supporting layer preventing direct contact between the loaded drug and the backing layer, a drug-loading layer and a mucoadhesive layer. Scanning electron microscopy demonstrated the presence of the distinct layers. The comp...

Nanosuspension is a novel drug formulation for the delivery of hydrophobic drugs. The problem medications that are poorly water-soluble and have low bioavailability countered by nanosuspension technology. Solubility significant physiochemical element influences absorption therapeutic effectiveness. Poor aqueous solubility has potential to impair development. technology can improve drug's stabil...

CONTEXT Thiomers could prove to be suitable mucoadhesives for fabrication of ocular inserts. OBJECTIVE The study intends to explore the application of thiolated sodium alginate (TSA) to the preparation of bilayered ocular inserts of gatifloxacin. METHODS Cysteine moieties were grafted onto sodium alginate (SA) and the resultant thiomer was characterized for relevant physicochemical properti...

   Prolonged residence of drug formulation in the nasal cavity is important for the enhancing intranasal drug delivery. The objective of the present study was to develop a mucoadhesive in-situ gelling nasal insert which would enable the reduced nasal mucociliary clearance in order to improve the bioavailability of metoclopramide hydrochloride. Metoclopramide hydrochloride is a potent antiemetic...
