objectives: postsurgical adhesion is one of the common complications after surgery. some anti-adhesion barriers are commercially available which are not customary used by physicians as much as expected because of ineffectiveness. recently, nanofibers have been introduced as anti-adhesion barriers with the potential of drug delivery. in the light of role of inflammation and oxidative stress in a...

This study was performed to design bilayer regioselective floating tablets of atenolol and lovastatin to give immediate release of lovastatin and sustained release of atenolol. Bilayer floating tablets comprised two layers, i.e immediate release and controlled release layers. The immediate release layer comprised sodium starch glycollate as a super disintegrant and the sustained release layer c...

Promethazine hydrochloride, a 5-HT3 antagonist is a powerful antiemetic drug with an oral bioavailability of 25% due to extensive hepatic first pass metabolism and is extremely bitter in taste. To overcome the above draw backs, the present study was carried out to formulate and evaluate fast dissolving taste masked wafers of Promethazine hydrochloride for sublingual administration. Taste maskin...

the purpose of this study was to design and optimize an oral controlled release acyclovir mucoadhesive tablet, in term of its drug release and mucoadhesive strength. a 32 full factorial design was employed to study the effect of independent variables like carbopol-934p and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose k100m, which significantly influence characteristics like swelling index, ex-vivo mucoadhesiv...
