The aim of the current study was to design oral controlled release mucoadhesive compressed hydrophilic matrices of atenolol
and to optimize the drug release profile and bioadhesion using response surface methodology. Tablets were prepared by direct
compression and evaluated for bioadhesive strength and in vitro dissolution parameters. A central composite design for 2 factors
at 3 levels each was employed to systematically optimize drug release profile and bioadhesive strength. Carbopol 934P and
sodium carboxymethylcellulose were taken as the independent variables. Response surface plots and contour plots were drawn,
and optimum formulations were selected by feasibility and grid searches. Compressed matrices exhibited non-Fickian drug release
kinetics approaching zero-order, as the value of release rate exponent (n) varied between 0.6672 and 0.8646, resulting in regulated and complete release until 24 hours. Both the polymers had significant
effect on the bioadhesive strength of the tablets, measured as force of detachment against porcine gastric mucosa (P<.001). Polynomial mathematical models, generated for various response variables using multiple linear regression analysis,
were found to be statistically significant (P<.01). Validation of optimization study, performed using 8 confirmatory runs, indicated very high degree of prognostic ability
of response surface methodology, with mean percentage error (±SD) as −0.0072±1.087. Besides unraveling the effect of the 2
factors on the various response variables, the study helped in finding the optimum formulation with excellent bioadhesive
strength and controlled release.

Compacts containing selected bioadhesive polymers, fillers, and binders were investigated for their potential as a bioadhesive
gastroretentive delivery system to deliver water soluble and water insoluble compounds in the stomach. Compacts with 90:10,
75:25, and 60:40 of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and polyethylene oxide (PEO) were evaluated for swelling, dissolution, bioadhesion,
and in vitro gastric retention. Compacts containing higher PEO showed higher swelling (111.13%) and bioadhesion (0.62 ± 0.03 N/cm2), and retained their integrity and adherence onto gastric mucosa for about 9 h under in vitro conditions. In vivo gastroretentive property of compacts were evaluated in Yorkshire cross swines. Compacts containing 58% PVP, 40% PEO and 2%
of water soluble or water insoluble marker compounds showed gastroadhesive and retentive properties in vivo. It is concluded that PEO in combination with PVP yields a non disintegrating type bioadhesive dosage form which is suitable
for gastroretentive applications.

In the present work, sustained release gastroretentive minimatrices of amoxicillin have been designed and optimized using
central composite design. Effect of amount of xanthan gum, rate controlling polymers (HPMC K100M CR/PEO coagulant (1:1)),
carbopol 974P, and gas generating couple (sodium bicarbonate/citric acid (3:1)) was studied on dependent (response) variables,
i.e., buoyancy lag time, drug release at 1 h, time required for 95% drug release, swelling index, and bioadhesive strength.
Minimatrices were prepared by non aqueous granulation method using solution of PVP K30 in isopropyl alcohol. All the formulations
were found to contain 99.2% to 100.9% of amoxicillin per minimatrix. Optimum formulation (Formulation number AGT09) containing
high level of the independent variables was having buoyancy lag time of 7 min and drug release at 1 h was 32.5%. It required
9.39 h for 95% drug release while swelling index and bioadhesive strength were 341 and 17.9 dyn/cm2, respectively. This formulation was said to be optimum because it has minimum buoyancy lag time, requires maximum time for
95% drug release, and has higher bioadhesive capabilities. In vitro results of an optimized formulation indicate its sustained drug release and gastric retention capability, which may be very
useful for effective treatment of H. pylori infection. 相似文献

Onychomycosis is a fungal infection of nail unit that is caused by dermatophytes. Oral Terbinafine hydrochloride (TBF-HCl) is being used for the treatment of onychomycosis since 24 years. The side effects caused by the systemic application and limitations of topical administration of this drug regarding the diffusion through nail lead to the development of a new formulation based on, TBF-HCl-loaded liposome. The newly obtained film formulations were prepared and characterized via several parameters, such as physical appearance, drug content, thickness, bioadhesive properties and tensile strength. In vitro and ex vivo permeation studies were performed to select an optimum film formulation for antifungal activity to show the efficiency of formulations regarding the treatment of onychomycosis. The in vitro release percentages of drug were found 71.6?±?3.28, 54.4?±?4.26, 56.1?±?7.48 and 46.0?±?2.43 for liposome loaded pullulan films (LI-P, LII-P) and liposome loaded Eudragit films (LI-E, LII-E), respectively. The accumulated drug in the nail plates were found 31.16?±?4.22, 24.81?±?5.35, 8.17?±?1.81 and 8.92?±?3.37 for LI-P, LII-P, LI-E and LII-E, respectively, which within therapeutic range for all film formulations. The accumulated drug in the nail plate was found within therapeutic range for all film formulations. The efficacy of the selected TBF-HCl-loaded liposome film formulation was compared with TBF-HCl-loaded liposome, ethosome, liposome poloxamer gel and ethosome chitosan gel formulations. It was found that TBF-HCl-loaded liposome film formulation had better antifungal activity on fungal nails which make this liposome film formulation promising for ungual therapy of fungal nail infection. 相似文献

The purpose of this research was to design and evaluate chitosan-based films intended for wound dressing application. Required
properties for successful wound dressing, such as liquid uptake, vapor and oxygen penetration, bioadhesiveness, and film elasticity,
were examined. Water uptake and vapor penetration of the films were determined gravimetrically, while oxygen penetration was
determined by Winkler’s method. The bioadhesive properties were determined with an in-house pulley system instrument using
a pig gut model. Film elasticity was determined with a stretch test using an Instron apparatus. The results showed that pure
chitosan films exhibited relatively high liquid uptake and the adsorption tended to decrease with the addition of Eudragit
RS 30D. Moisture vapor and oxygen were found to be able to penetrate through all film formulations in comparable amounts.
The bioadhesiveness test tended to show lower bioadhesive properties with the addition of Eudragit RS 30D. The formulation
containing only chitosan exhibited low elongation of the film at 2 N, but the film elasticity increased with the addition
of Eudragit RS 30D. In conclusion, the addition of Eudragit RS 30D could improve a film’s mechanical properties but lower
its bioadhesiveness.

The aim of this work was to investigate the suitability of some polymeric films as buccal systems for the delivery of the
antiseptic drug chlorhexidine diacetate, considered as a valid adjunct in the treatment of oral candidiasis. Six different
film formulations, mono- or double-layered, containing 5 or 10 mg of chlorhexidine diacetate, respectively, and alginate and/or
hydroxypropylmethylcellulose and/or chitosan as excipients, were prepared by a casting-solvent evaporation technique and characterized
in terms of drug content, morphology (scanning electron microscopy), drug release behavior, and swelling properties. Moreover,
the in vivo concentrations of chlorhexidine diacetate in saliva were evaluated after application of a selected formulation on the oral
mucosa of healthy volunteers. The casting-solvent evaporation proved to be a suitable technique for preparing soft, flexible,
and easily handy mono- or double-layered chlorhexidine-loaded films. Some prepared formulations showed favorable in vitro drug release rates and swelling properties. The behavior of a selected formulation, chosen on the basis of its in vitro release results, was preliminarily investigated in vivo after application in the oral cavity of healthy volunteers. The films were well tolerated and the salivary chlorhexidine
concentrations were maintained above the minimum inhibitory concentration for Candida albicans for almost 3 h. These preliminary results indicate that polymeric films can represent a valid vehicle for buccal delivery
of antifungal/antimicrobial drugs. 相似文献

The aim of this work was to investigate the influence of particles on the properties of polymethacrylate films intended for buccal delivery. A solvent casting method was used with Eudragit RS and RL (ERS and ERL, respectively) as film-forming rate-controlling polymers, with caffeine as a water-soluble model drug. The physicochemical properties of the model films for a series of formulations with increasing concentrations of caffeine were determined in terms of morphology, mechanical and mucoadhesive properties, drug content uniformity, and drug release and associated kinetics. Typically regarded as non-mucoadhesive polymers, ERS and mainly ERL, were found to be good mucoadhesives, with ERL01 exhibiting a work of mucoadhesion (WoA) of 118.9 μJ, which was about five to six times higher than that observed for commonly used mucoadhesives such as Carbopol® 974P (C974P, 23.9 μJ) and polycarbophil (PCP, 17.4 μJ). The mucoadhesive force for ERL01 was found to be significantly lower yet comparable to C974P and PCP films (211.1 vs. 329.7 and 301.1 mN, respectively). Inspection of cross-sections of the films indicated that increasing the concentration of caffeine was correlated with the appearance of recrystallized agglomerates. In conclusion, caffeine agglomerates had detrimental effects in terms of mucoadhesion, mechanical properties, uniformity, and drug release at large particle sizes. ERL series of films exhibited very rapid release of caffeine while ERS series showed controlled release. Analysis of release profiles revealed that kinetics changed from a diffusion controlled to a first-order release mechanism. 相似文献

Two groups of fluconazole mucoadhesive buccal discs were prepared: (a) Fluconazole buccal discs prepared by direct compression
containing bioadhesive polymers, namely, Carbopol 974p (Cp), sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (SCMC), or sodium alginate (SALG)
in combination with hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) or hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC). (b) Fluconazole buccal discs prepared
by freeze drying containing different polymer combinations (SCMC/HPMC, Cp/HPMC, SALG/HPMC, and chitosan/SALG). The prepared
discs were evaluated by investigating their release pattern, swelling capacity, mucoadhesion properties, and in vitro adhesion time. In vivo evaluation of the buccal disc and in vivo residence times were also performed. Fluconazole salivary concentration after application of fluconazole buccal systems to
four healthy volunteers was determined using microbiological assay and high-performance liquid chromatography. SCMC/HPMC buccal
disc prepared by direct compression could be considered comparatively superior mucoadhesive disc regarding its in vitro adhesion time, in vivo residence time, and in vitro/in vivo release rates of the drug. Determination of the amount of drug released in saliva after application of the selected fluconazole
disc confirmed the ability of the disc to deliver the drug over a period of approximately 5 h and to reduce side effects and
possibility of drug interaction encountered during systemic therapy of fluconazole, which would be beneficial in the case
of oral candidiasis. 相似文献

Matrix type transdermal films of donepezil (DNP) as an alternative delivery approach was designed to improve patient compliance to Alzheimer disease treatment. Sodium alginate, a natural polysaccharide, was used as matrix-forming agent in the optimization of transdermal films. Propylene glycol and dl-limonene was added into films as a plasticizer and permeation enhancer, respectively. As well as mechanical strength and bioadhesiveness of optimized transdermal films of DNP, the impact of dl-limonene concentration in films on DNP in vitro permeation across pig skin was assessed. Attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) measurements were carried out to examine the effects of enhancer on in vitro conformational order of the stratum corneum intercellular lipids following permeation study. Results showed that transdermal formulations of DNP were suitable due to both mechanical and bioadhesive features of the films. In vitro skin permeation study indicated that dl-limonene at a concentration of 3% was optimum with high drug flux. ATR-FTIR results confirmed a more fluidized stratum corneum lipid state in the presence of dl-limonene, indicating its permeation enhancement effect. Regarding to achieve therapeutic levels of DNP, it seems to be feasible deliver DNP with transdermal films for the management of Alzheimer disease.KEY WORDS: Alzheimer disease, donepezil, limonene, permeation enhancement, transdermal film 相似文献

The purpose of this research was to investigate 5-methyl-pyrrolidinone chitosan (MPC) films as carriers for buccal delivery
of protein drugs. Placebo and protein-loaded MPC films were prepared by casting and were then cross-linked with tripolyphosphate
at different pH conditions. Myoglobin (MHb) was chosen as the model protein because its molecular weight is under the permeability
limit of the buccal mucosa. The observed characteristics like bioadhesiveness, swelling behavior, and in vitro release of
MHb from loaded films furnish information on the functional behavior of these films. The results obtained show that the modulation
of Mhb release was achieved only through chitosan cross-linking; the best results in release rate control were obtained by
cross-linking performed at pH 6.5. Good bioadhesion properties were maintained even with high cross-linking degrees; the swelling
index of MHb-loaded films at different cross-linking degrees evaluated at pH 7.4 and pH 6.4 were comparable to those of placebo
films. By setting suitable tripolyphosphate cross-linking conditions for MPC films, one can control protein release without
affecting bioadhesion.

Transdermal films of the furosemide were developed employing ethyl cellulose and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose as film formers.
The effect of binary mixture of polymers and penetration enhancers on physicochemical parameters including thickness, moisture
content, moisture uptake, drug content, drug–polymer interaction, and in vitro permeation was evaluated. In vitro permeation study was conducted using human cadaver skin as penetration barrier in modified Keshary–Chein diffusion cell.
In vitro skin permeation study showed that binary mixture, ethyl cellulose (EC)/hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), at 8.5:1.5 ratio
provided highest flux and also penetration enhancers further enhanced the permeation of drug, while propylene glycol showing
higher enhancing effect compared to dimethyl sulfoxide and isopropyl myristate. Different kinetic models, used to interpret
the release kinetics and mechanism, indicated that release from all formulations followed apparent zero-order kinetics and
non-Fickian diffusion transport except formulation without HPMC which followed Fickian diffusion transport. Stability studies
conducted as per International Conference on Harmonization guidelines did not show any degradation of drug. Based on the above
observations, it can be reasonably concluded that blend of EC–HPMC polymers and propylene glycol are better suited for the
development of transdermal delivery system of furosemide. 相似文献

The purpose of this research was to prepare and evaluate sustained release mucoadhesive tablets of Itraconazole. It is practically
insoluble in aqueous fluids hence its solid dispersion with Eudragit E100 was prepared by spray drying. This was formulated
in matrix of hydrophilic mucoadhesive polymers Carbopol 934P (CP) and Methocel K4M (HPMC). The formulation was optimized using
a 32 factorial design. Amounts of CP and HPMC were taken as formulation variables for optimizing response variables i.e. mucoadhesion
and dissolution parameters. The optimized mucoadhesive formulation was orally administered to albino rabbits, and blood samples
collected were used to determine pharmacokinetic parameters. The solid dispersion markedly enhanced the dissolution rate of
itraconazole. The bioadhesive strength of formulation was found to vary linearly with increasing amount of both polymers.
Formulations exhibited drug release fitting Peppas model with value of n ranging from 0.61 to 1.18. Optimum combination of polymers was arrived at which provided adequate bioadhesive strength and
fairly regulated release profile. The experimental and predicted results for optimum formulations were found to be in close
agreement. The formulation showed C
max 1898 ± 75.23 ng/ml, t
max of the formulation was 2 h and AUC was observed to be 28604.9 ng h/ml 相似文献

The purpose of this research was to design oral controlled release (CR) matrix tablets of zidovudine (AZT) using hydroxypropyl
methylcellulose (HPMC), ethyl cellulose (EC) and carbopol-971P (CP) and to study the effect of various formulation factors
on in vitro drug release. Release studies were carried out using USP type 1 apparatus in 900 ml of dissolution media. Release kinetics
were analyzed using zero-order, Higuchi’s square root and Ritger–Peppas’ empirical equations. Release rate decreased with
increase in polymer proportion and compression force. The release rate was lesser in formulations prepared using CP (20%)
as compared to HPMC (20%) as compared to EC (20%). No significant difference was observed in the effect of pH of dissolution
media on drug release from formulations prepared using HPMC or EC, but significant difference was observed in CP based formulations.
Decrease in agitation speed from 100 to 50 rpm decreased release rate from HPMC and CP formulations but no significant difference
was observed in EC formulations. Mechanism of release was found to be dependent predominantly on diffusion of drug through
the matrix than polymer relaxation incase of HPMC and EC formulations, while polymer relaxation had a dominating influence
on drug release than diffusion incase of CP formulations. Designed CR tablets with pH independent drug release characteristics
and an initial release of 17–25% in first hour and extending the release up to 16–20 h, can overcome the disadvantages associated
with conventional tablets of AZT. 相似文献

The present research work focused on the comparative assessment of porous versus nonporous films in order to develop a suitable buccoadhesive device for the delivery of glibenclamide. Both films were prepared by solvent casting technique using the 32 full factorial design, developing nine formulations (F1–F9). The films were evaluated for ex vivo mucoadhesive force, ex vivo mucoadhesion time, in vitro drug release (using a modified flow-through drug release apparatus), and ex vivo drug permeation. The mucoadhesive force, mucoadhesion time, swelling index, and tensile strength were observed to be directly proportional to the content of HPMC K4M. The optimized porous film (F4) showed an in vitro drug release of 84.47 ± 0.98%, ex vivo mucoadhesive force of 0.24 ± 0.04 N, and ex vivo mucoadhesion time of 539.11 ± 3.05 min, while the nonporous film (NF4) with the same polymer composition showed a release of 62.66 ± 0.87%, mucoadhesive force of 0.20 ± 0.05 N, and mucoadhesive time of 510 ± 2.00 min. The porous film showed significant differences for drug release and mucoadhesion time (p < 0.05) versus the nonporous film. The mechanism of drug release was observed to follow non-Fickian diffusion (0.1 < n < 0.5) for both porous and nonporous films. Ex vivo permeation studies through chicken buccal mucosa indicated improved drug permeation in porous films versus nonporous films. The present investigation established porous films to be a cost-effective buccoadhesive delivery system of glibenclamide.KEY WORDS: buccoadhesive drug delivery, glibenclamide, in vitro release and ex vivo permeation, porous film 相似文献

This study is an extrapolation of our previous one (part I) concerned with the formulation and physicochemical evaluation of a novel, simple, monolayer, easy-to-use, cost-effective, and aesthetically acceptable bioadhesive transdermal patch for tramadol hydrochloride. The current work is focused on bioadhesion, skin tolerability, and pharmacodynamic evaluation. Using naked rat skin, chitosan–Eudragit® NE30D (1:1) film attained best bioadhesive properties. During in vivo studies, it also showed a significantly extended analgesic effect compared to both oral formula and chitosan single polymeric film using the hot plate test method. All the polymeric films were skin tolerable for the intended period of application according to the Draize test. The success of our approach can proudly, positively contribute into the world of pain management and arguably push transdermal delivery to realize its great promise. 相似文献

The study aim was concerned with formulation and evaluation of bioadhesive buccal drug delivery of tizanidine hydrochloride
tablets, which is extensively metabolized by liver. The tablets were prepared by direct compression using bioadhesive polymers
such as hydroxylpropyl methylcellulose K4M, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose alone, and a combination of these two polymers.
In order to improve the permeation of drug, different permeation enhancers like beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD), hydroxylpropyl beta-cyclodextrin
(HP-β-CD), and sodium deoxycholate (SDC) were added to the formulations. The β-CD and HP-β-CD were taken in 1:1 molar ratio
to drug in formulations. Bioadhesion strength, ex vivo residence time, swelling, and in vitro dissolution studies and ex vivo permeation studies were performed. In vitro release of optimized bioadhesive buccal tablet was found to be non-Fickian. SDC was taken in 1%, 2%, and 3% w/w of the total tablet weight. Stability studies in natural saliva indicated that optimized formulation has good stability in
human saliva. In vivo mucoadhesive behavior of optimized formulation was performed in five healthy male human volunteers and subjective parameters
were evaluated. 相似文献

The bioavailability of therapeutic agents from eye drops is usually limited due to corneal barrier functions and effective
eye protective mechanisms. Therefore, the current study aims to enhance ocular bioavailability of brimonidine, a potent antiglaucoma
drug, through the preparation of ocular inserts. Solvent casting technique was employed to prepare the inserts using polyvinylpyrrolidone
K-90 (PVP K-90) as film-forming polymer blended with different viscosity grades of bioadhesive polymers namely hydroxypropyl
methycellulose, carbopol, sodium alginate, and chitosan. The prepared ocular inserts were evaluated for various physicochemical
parameters, swelling behavior, and in vitro release patterns. Sodium alginate-based ocular inserts revealed the most sustainment in drug release (99% at 6 h), so it
was selected for further modifications via coating it, on one side or dual sides, using hydrophobic film composed of either
ethylcellulose or Eudragit RSPO. The obtained in vitro release results for the modified ocular inserts revealed that ethylcellulose is superior to Eudragit RSPO in terms of brimonidine
release sustainment effect. Ocular inserts composed of 7% PVP K-90, 1.5% low molecular weight sodium alginate with or without
ethylcellulose coat were able to sustain the in vitro release of brimonidine. Their therapeutic efficacy regarding intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering effect when inserted in
albino rabbits eyes showed superior sustainment effect compared with that of brimonidine solution. Furthermore, due to both
the mucoadhesive property and the drug sustainment effect, the one-side-coated ocular insert showed more IOP lowering effect
compared with that of its non-coated or dual-side-coated counterpart. 相似文献

Currently available anti-ulcer drugs suffer from serious side effects which limited their uses and prompted the need to search for a safe and efficient new anti-ulcer agent. Boswellia gum resin (BR) emerged as a safe, efficient, natural, and economic potential cytoprotective agent. Thus, it is of medical importance to develop gastroretentive (GR) formulations of BR to enhance its bioavailability and anti-ulcer efficacy. Early attempts involved the use of organic solvents and non-applicability to large-scale production. In this study, different tablet formulations were prepared by simple direct compression combining floating and bioadhesion mechanisms employing hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (SCMC), pectin (PC), and/or carbopol (CP) as bioadhesive polymers and sodium bicarbonate (SB) as a gas former. The prepared tablets were subjected for assessment of swelling, floating, bioadhesion, and drug release in 0.1 N HCl. The optimized GR formulation was examined for its protective effect on the gastric ulcer induced by indomethacin in albino rabbits compared with lactose tablets. The obtained results disclosed that swelling, floating, bioadhesion, and drug release of the GR tablets of BR depend mainly on the nature of the matrix and the ratio of polymer combinations. Moreover, a combination of SCMC-CP in a ratio of 2:1 (SCP21) exhibited desirable floating, bioadhesion, swelling, and extended drug release. Also, a 6-h pretreatment with SCP21 tablets decreased the severity of inflammation and number of bleeding spots among ulcer-induced rabbits in comparison to those treated with lactose tablets. 相似文献

The present study aimed to evaluate different dosage forms, emulsions, emulgels, lipogels, and thickened microemulsion-based
hydrogel, as fluconazole topical delivery systems with the purpose of determining a formulation with the capacity to deliver
the whole active compound and maintain it within the skin so as to be considered a useful formulation either for topical mycosis
treatment or as adjuvant in a combined therapy for Cutaneous Leishmaniasis. Propylene glycol and diethyleneglycol monoethyl
ether were used for each dosage form as solvent for the drug and also as penetration enhancers. In vitro drug release after application of a clinically relevant dose of each formulation was evaluated and then microemulsions and
lipogels were selected for the in vitro penetration and permeation study. Membranes of mixed cellulose esters and full-thickness pig ear skin were used for the in vitro studies. Candida albicans was used to test antifungal activity. A microemulsion containing diethyleneglycol monoethyl ether was found to be the optimum
formulation as it was able to deliver the whole contained dose and enhance its skin penetration. Also this microemulsion showed
the best performance in the antifungal activity test compared with the one containing propylene glycol. These results are
according to previous reports of the advantages of microemulsions for topical administration and they are very promising for
further clinical evaluation. 相似文献

This study investigated the processing parameters and formulation factors on the bioadhesive properties, temperature stability properties, and drug release properties of miconazole in PolyOx® and Klucel® matrix systems produced by Hot-melt Extrusion (HME) technology. Miconazole incorporated into these matrix systems were found to be stable for 8 months by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The addition of miconazole increased area under the curve (AUC) at contact time intervals of 30 and 60 sec, while the bioadhesion decreased with an increase in processing temperatures. The release profiles suggest that a sustained release of miconazole was observed from all of the tested HME film formulations for approximately 10 h. The release from the optimal HME film extruded at 205°C was found to be significantly different than that extruded at 190°C. Therefore, this matrix system may address the present shortcomings of currently available therapy for oral and pharyngeal candidiasis. 相似文献
