Nowadays, Nano-sized drug delivery systems have been studied extensively for theirpotential in cancer therapy. Various drug nanocarriers are being developed including liposomes, micelles, and Virus like nanoparticles (VLNPs). VLNPs offer many advantages for developing smart drug delivery systems due to their precise and repeated structures and relatively large cargo capacities. Truncated ...

Objective: The aim of present investigation was to develop HBS system (sustained release) for Verapamil HCl used for the treatment of hypertension. The drug delivery system was designed to retain the system in stomach so that increase in absorption of drug and decrease in dosing interval. Methodology: Single unit capsules were filled with weighed mixture of Verapamil HCl and polymers such as HP...

A common approach for building a drug delivery system is to incorporate the drug within the nanocarrier that results in increased solubility, metabolic stability, and improved circulation time. However, recent developments indicate that selection of polymer nanomaterials can implement more than only inert carrier functions by being biological response modifiers. One representative of such mater...

Pluronic based nano-particulate systems are innovative platforms for delivery of anti-cancer agents. These systems due to their pharmacological properties and suitable physicochemical characteristics are great opportunity for development cancer therapeutics. This mini-review tries to provide a more detailed overview on the currently available pluronic based drug delivery systems. In the section...

PURPOSE A multiparticular floating-pulsatile drug delivery system was developed for time and site specific drug release of piroxicam. A blend of floating and pulsatile principles of drug delivery system would have the advantage that a drug can be released in the upper GI tract after a definite time period. METHODS Hollow microspheres were prepared by the emulsion solvent diffusion method usin...
