Sinomenine is extracted from Sinomenii caulis (a traditional Chinese medicine), and it is used as the active ingredient in rheumatic arthritis treatments. It has been used in clinical applications for decades. However, there are some disadvantages, including low activity in transdermal permeation and a high dosage being clinically required. To overcome these defects, sinomenine was used as a pr...

The goal of the present investigation was to design and evaluate mucoadhesive buccal patches of Ondansetron Hydrochloride (OND) which is used for nausea and vomiting associated with cancer chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Permeation of OND was calculated ex vivo using porcine buccal membrane. Buccal films were developed by solvent-casting technique using Hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose(HPMC E15) ...

A series of N,N'-disubstituted-2-nitroethene-1,1-diamine and N,N'-disubstituted- N''-cyanoguanidine derivatives were prepared and evaluated for in vivo analgesic activity. The blood brain barrier (BBB) VolSurf model was used to predict the BBB permeation profiles of our synthesized compounds. Some compounds show both remarkable analgesic activity and good BBB permeation profiles, and these comp...

the aim of the present study was to investigate the influence and the mechanisms of cineoleand terpineol on the in-vitro transdermal delivery of huperzine a from microemulsions, andtheir potential synergistic effect on the permeation enhancement. the transdermal deliveryof huperzine a from microemulsions with different concentrations of cineole and terpineolthrough the rat abdominal skin was de...

Risperidone (RISP) is an antipsychotic agent and has low water solubility and nontargeted delivery results in numerous side effects. Hence, an attempt was made to develop SLNs hydrogel for intranasal delivery of RISP to achieve maximum bioavailability and reduction of side effects. RISP loaded SLNs composed of 1.65% (w/v) lipid mass were produced by high shear homogenization (HSH) coupled ultra...

Excised human skin is utilized for in vitro permeation experiments to evaluate the safety and effect of topically-applied drugs by measuring its skin permeation and concentration. However, ethical considerations are the major problem for using human skin to evaluate percutaneous absorption. Moreover, large variations have been found among human skin specimens as a result of differences in age, ...

The aim of the present work was to evaluate the transdermal permeability of pentoxifylline gel in vitro and in vivo. Gel was prepared with carbomer 934 as the base, and the Wistar rat was chosen as an animal model. The effects of percutaneous enhancers on the transdermal permeability of pentoxifylline gel were investigated by in vitro permeation experiments. Cumulative permeation at different t...

This study investigated the suspension of poly(ε-caprolactone) nanoparticles as an ocular delivery system for flurbiprofen (FB-PεCL-NPs) in order to overcome the associated problems, such as stability, sterility, tolerance, and efficacy, with two different FB-PεCL-NP formulations. The formulations were stabilized with poloxamer 188 (1.66% and 3.5%) and submitted individually for freeze-drying a...

Objective: In an attempt to optimize the anti-Alzheimer effect, rivastigmine-loaded chitosan nanoparticles were developed in order target of brain through skin permeation. Methods: Rivastigmine-loaded chitosan-tripolyphosphate prepared by modified ionic gelation method using tween 80 surfactants different batches with variable chitosan/cross-linker ratios, desirability factors applied choose op...
