OBJECTIVE S Mucoadhesive disc is one of the various routes of drug delivery for curing buccal disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS Every discs containing 70 mg stem bark extract of Ziziphus jujuba were formulated by using Carbopol 934, PVP k30 and gelatin as polymers. Discs were made by granulation and direct compression. Discs were standardized based on the total phenol. Properties such as in vitr...

Objective: Buccal drug delivery is the most suited route for local as well systemic of drugs. Cilnidipine an L/N type dihydropyridine 4th generation calcium channel blocker (CCB), which decreases hypertension by blocking N-type to attenuate vascular sympathetic neurotransmission. It has high first-pass metabolism leading low bioavailability. Hence present research work was undertaken formulate ...

Mucoadhesive delivery systems offer several advantages over other oral controlled release systems by virtue of prolongation of residence time of drug, its targeting, and localization of the dosage form at a specific site. These advantages include bypass of first pass metabolism of the drug and hence more concentration of the drug is available for absorption. Mucoadhesion occurs between two surf...

Polymers constitute the major part of pharmaceutical formulations functionality and significance. Development of novel drug delivery system (NDDS) has been made possible by eudragit polymers to modify the release pattern of drug. The basic objective of sustained drug release is to achieve more effective therapies by eliminating potential for both under and overdosing. Other advantages include m...

Background: Labor induction is one of the most public ways carried out global for delivering mothers. The aim of labor induction is to encourage uterine contractions before the spontaneous onset of labor, resultant in vaginal delivery misoprostol is used off-label for a variety of indications in the practice of obstetrics and gynecology, including medication abortion, medical management of misc...

in this work we synthesized nano hydroxyapatite (hap)  by sol-gel method, then we functionalized hydroxyapatite nanoparticle by use of  3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane (aptms) , to improve the loading and control release of sulfasalazine drug bonded to aptms. the drug release patterns from sulfasalazine loaded hap nanoparticles at ph value 8 for 6h, sulfasalazine loaded functionalized hap nanopa...

Objective: The Losartan potassium mucoadhesive buccal tablet were prepared using mucoadhesive polymers such as Carbopol 940P, pectin, sodium CMC, Sodium alginate, HPMC K4M, HPMC K15M and HPMC K100M in alone and in combination as release retarding agent to prolong the drug release and to avoid first pass metabolism. Methods: The mucoadhesive buccal tablets were prepared by direct compression met...

Buccal mucoadhesive systems among novel drug delivery systems have attracted great attention in recent years due to their ability to adhere and remain on the oral mucosa and to release their drug content gradually. Buccal mucoadhesive films can improve the drug therapeutic effect by enhancement of drug absorption through oral mucosa increasing the drug bioavailability via reducing the hepatic f...
