The two major problems in the development of new drugs are low aqueous solubility and oral bioavailability. Although, drug delivery via route is most preferred for years but it also has some drawbacks. Various techniques improving have been developed, however success these depends on physical chemical properties under development. In recent years, mucoadhesive gained high popularity comparison ...

In recent decades, three generations of thiomers have been developed with the main purpose obtaining enhanced interactions mucosal tissues. Therefore, many different types thiolated ligands generated and attached to polymeric backbones. The aim this study was synthesize all directly compare their properties regarding mucus penetration mucoadhesion. Starting from pectin, unprotected thiomer pect...

Abstract: Background: Natural biopolymers or hydrogels that are biodegradable and safe from biological point of view along with their capability to retain active principle within network thus prolonging the release. The present work was undertaken explore potential mucilage mature seeds Chia (Salvia hispanica) sustain release water-soluble drugs. Losartan potassium used as a model prepare gelis...

Aim: Mucoadhesive buccal films provide drug delivery for both local and systemic circulation with increased patient compliance. The objective of this study was to develop a film containing benzydamine hydrochloride (BNZ) by using hyaluronic acid (HA) as film-forming agent glycerin (Gly) plasticizer the anti-inflammatory effect on mucosal ulcer. Material Methods: effects different concentrations...

Background/Aim. Vinegar is one of the main international traditional nutraceuticals, and it has been used as a vaginal health protectant due to vagina pH balance maintenance antimicrobial properties. Since form vinegar liquid, difficult apply vaginally its short retention. The aim this study was design mucoadhesive gel made vinegar. Methods. Xanthan gum tragacanth were utilized natural gel-form...

Smoking cessation is of current topical interest due to the significant negative health and economic impact in many countries. This study aimed to develop buccal films and wafers comprising HPMC and sodium alginate (SA) for potential use in nicotine replacement therapy via the buccal mucosa, as a cheap but effective alternative to currently used nicotine patch and chewing gum. The formulations ...

The purpose of the present investigation was to prepare an intranasal in situ gel with increased nasal residence time in order to improve bioavailability of metoprolol tartrate. The in situ gel systems containing carbopol, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose K4M and K15M in different concentrations were prepared. The samples were characterized for viscosity, rheological behavior, gelation behavior, g...

Plants gums are complex mixtures of different polysaccharides with a variety of biological activities and pharmaceutical applications. Few studies have focused on physicochemical and biological properties of gums obtained from different plants. This study was designed to determine potential pharmaceutical and pharmacological values of the gum exudates and its isolated biopolymers obtained from ...
