abstract: background: a new type of drug delivery system known as mucoadhesive film has been developed for oral thrush treatment. due to comfortable use of this drug delivery system, this would be encouragingly utilized, especially in babies and patient under chemotherapy. nystatin mucoadhesive film (nmf) is a polymeric film which is adhered to front upper gum and back to the upper lip and rele...

background: based on the efficacy of paromomycin ointment and recent ongoing clinical trials of combination of paromomycin and gentamicin, a new physical form of films of the paromomy­cin and gentamicin was prepared and anti- leishmania activities of the prepared films were as­sessed in vitro and in vivo. methods: paromomycin 15% and gentamicin 0.5% was incorporated in a film using ethyl cellu­...

In this study, Damar Batu (DB) − a novel biomaterial− is evaluated for its potential application in pharmaceutical coating. DB is a whitish to yellowish resin, characterized initially in terms of solubility, acid value, molecular weight (Mw), polydispersity index (Mw/Mn) and glass transition temperature (Tg). Neat plasticized films of DB are investigated for mechanical, water vapor transmission...

Objective(s): The aim of present study is to formulate mefenamic acid transdermal gel based on vesicular drug delivery approaches.Materials and Methods: For the preparation of mefenamic acid transdermal gel, transfersomes were selected as colloidal carriers. Transfersomes were prepared by hand shaking and thin film hydration techniques. The obtained transfersomes were characterized for vesicula...

diclofenac sodium as ophthalmic dosage form is used in patients treatment of eye pain, swelling and redness recovering from cataract surgery but it faces the bioavailability limitation of eye drops due to effective protective mechanisms and corneal barrier functions in the eyes. therefore, this investigation was aimed to develop ocular film formulations to achieve controlled drug release. drug ...

       Cyproterone acetate (CA) has been loaded to liposome by solvent evaporation and thin film formation technique. The effects of some formulation variables such as temperature of organic solvent evaporation, rotary evaporator speed, volume of organic solvent, volume of balloon and temperature of hydrating buffer has been evaluated. The data showed that bigger balloon with higher surface are...
