Carbopol/Chitosan Based pH Triggered In Situ Gelling System for Ocular Delivery of Timolol Maleate
The poor bioavailability and therapeutic response exhibited by conventional ophthalmic preparations due to rapid precorneal elimination, dilution and nasolacrimal drainage of the drug may be vanquished by the use of in situ gelling systems that are instilled as drops in to the eye and undergo a sol-gel transition in the cul-de-sac. Timolol eye drops may cause systemic side effects in glaucoma p...
متن کاملIn vitro and in vivo evaluation of Pluronic F127-based ocular delivery system for timolol maleate.
The purpose of this study was to develop Pluronic F127 (PF127) based formulations of timolol maleate (TM) aimed at enhancing its ocular bioavailability. The effect of isotonicity agents and PF127 concentrations on the rheological properties of the prepared formulations was examined. In an attempt to reduce the concentration of PF127 without compromising the in situ gelling capabilities, various...
متن کاملOcular reaction to timolol maleate.
A patient prescribed timolol maleate for the control of hypertension developed dryness of the eyes. The symptoms improved on withdrawal of the drug. Vigilance for such adverse reactions must be observed in the use of any beta-adrenoreceptor blocking agent.

Thermo sensitive ophthalmic d...
متن کاملNorfloxacin loaded pH triggered nanoparticulate in situ gel for extraocular bacterial infections: Optimization, ocular irritancy and corneal toxicity
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-lin...
