Effect of Some Commercial Antacids and Tea Drink on the In- Vitro Availability of Frusemide

The effect of ultrasound on caffeine transport through rabbitâ€TMs skin from four different gel matrices respectively made fromHPMC, methylcellulose, gelatin or carbopol 940 has been evaluated. The drug transport without ultrasound application was not detectable during the time course of the study. Ultrasound application has showed an increase drug transport (in terms of percent of drug transpo...
