Transdermal patches loaded with pravastatin was previously characterized in another published study by Serrano-Castañeda et al; 2015. These transdermal patches (TP) were generated by the plate casting technique, the in vitro percutaneous absorption studies of TP were evaluated for three different formulations of TP with different quantities of Pluronic F-127 (PF-127): i) without PF-127 (TP W), ...

Domperidone is practically insoluble prokinetic drug; the systemic bioavailability of the drug following oral administration is only 13-17% because of extensive presystemic metabolism in the gut wall and liver. The applicability of the solid dispersion technique as a method for enhancing absorption of the drug through achieving better dissolution characteristics and better bioavailability for d...

The objective of the present study was to design ophthalmic delivery systems based on polymeric carriers that undergo sol-to-gel transition upon change in temperature or in the presence of cations so as to prolong the effect of HP- β -CD Voriconazole (VCZ) in situ gelling formulations. The in situ gelling formulations of Voriconazole were prepared by using pluronic F-127 (PF-127) or with combin...

Purpose: To evaluate the physicochemical properties of clotrimazole (CLT) solid dispersion with Pluronic F127 (PLU). Methods: Solid dispersions of the antifungal drug, clotrimazole, were prepared with Pluronic F127 using grinding (PM) and fusion (FUS) methods. Physicochemical characterization of the dispersions were performed using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), x-ray powder diffracti...

The triblock copolymer Pluronic F127 (PF127) is frequently used in colloidal and pharmaceutical formulations. Concentrated aqueous solutions of PF127 (>15 wt %) are known to undergo thermogelling (i.e., a sol-to-gel transition upon heating), which is attributed to the formation of a volume-filling cubic array of micelles. Here, we report that thermogelling can occur at much lower PF127 concentr...
