The aim of the present work is to formulate and evaluate in situ oral topical gels of poorly water soluble drug Bifonazole based on temperature induced systems for the treatment of oral candidiasis. Bifonazole is poorly water soluble and low permeable drug means it's belongs to BCS Class IV. Due to its poor water solubility, it necessary to enhance solubility in water by make complex with Beta- Cyclodextrin (Drug to βCyclo Dextrine ratio is 1:1). After in situ gel preparation done by using Poloxamer (10% and 15%w/w) along with carbopol 934 (0.2 to 1.0% w/w) and Bifonazole – β CD complex (1%w/w). The formulations were evaluated for physiochemical parameter, gelation Temperature, viscosity, gel strength, content uniformity mucoadhesive force, Diffusion Study.
The aim of present investigation was formulation and in-vitro evaluation of in situ gel for the nasal delivery of zolmitriptan. The in situ gel was prepared by temperature induced gelation technique using Pluronic with mucoadhesive polymer hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose K4 M in different ratios. The in situ gels so prepared were characterized and from the evaluation studies, batch PH2 was optimized and further subjected for stability studies at 30±2°C and 60±5% RH for 90 days. These formulations retained good stability at accelerated conditions and also did not show any remarkable damage to nasal mucosa in histopathological study. Owing to these properties it can be used as an effective delivery system for the nasal route.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
