Site-specific Drug Delivery: Polymers for Gastroretention
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Gastroretention is the mechanism by which a dosage form is retained in the stomach, generally for the purposes of improving drug delivery. It has been proposed as a mechanism through which drug absorption in the upper gastrointestinal tract can be maximised. Gastroretentive approaches to drug delivery aim to counteract the physiological mechanisms that cause the stomach to empty by providing a modified dosage form which can be retained.

Design and Evaluation of Polyox and Pluronic Controlled Gastroretentive Delivery of Troxipide
Objective. Objective of the present work was to develop site-specific gastroretentive drug delivery of Troxipide using polymers Pluronic F127 and Polyox 205 WSR. Troxipide is a novel gastroprotective agent with antiulcer, anti-inflammatory, and mucus secreting properties with elimination half-life of 7.4 hrs. Troxipide inhibits H. pylori-derived urease. It is mainly absorbed from stomach. Metho...
متن کاملMucoadhesive Microspheres as a Controlled Drug Delivery System for Gastroretention
Context: Drugs that are easily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and have a short halflife are eliminated quickly from the blood circulation, require frequent dosing. To avoid this, the oral controlled release (CR) formulations have been developed in an attempt to release the drug slowly into the GIT and maintain a constant drug concentration in the serum for longer period of time....
متن کاملDesign and Development of Novel Dual-Compartment Capsule for Improved Gastroretention
The aim of the proposed research work was to develop a novel dual-compartment capsule (NDCC) with polymeric disc for gastroretentive dosage form, which will ultimately result in better solubility and bioavailability of Ofloxacin. Floating ring caps were formulated by using different natural polymers, separating ring band and swellable polymer located at the bottom of capsule. Formulated ring ca...

The aim of the present work was to assess the feasibility of Acconon MC8-2 EP/NF as a bioadhesive material for developing controlled release gastroretentive microsponges of loratadine. Modified emulsion-solvent diffusion method was employed for the preparation of microsponges (F1-F9) based on 32 factorial design. The amount of ethyl cellulose (EC) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) were selected...
