“…Furthermore, PCL has reported use in pharmaceutical dosage forms. In 2015, Pathak and co-workers successfully manufactured PCL matrices loaded with doxycycline to be administered via the vaginal route for the treatment of sexually transmitted infections [29]. Thus, PCL could prove to be a suitable excipient for use in drug eluting constructs in the field of FDM.…”

“…A large burst effect was previously observed for PCL matrices loaded only with metronidazole (35-65%) along with low drug release rates over a period of 14 days [24]. In contrast, doxycycline release from singlyloaded PCL matrices was more uniform [25], resulting in gradual delivery of 65-75% of the drug load over 14 days. Thus PCL matrices were loaded with increasing concentrations of metronidazole at constant doxycycline loading in the present study to enhance the rate and quantity of metronidazole release.…”

“…Poly (ɛcaprolactone) (PCL) has been studied extensively for controlled drug delivery applications in the form of micro-and nanoparticles, fibers and matrices [23] and offers advantages for the production of intravaginal drug delivery devices because of its biocompatibility, ease of processing and relatively low processing temperatures. PCL matrices prepared by rapid cooling techniques have previously been investigated for vaginal delivery of individual antibacterials (metronidazole and doxycycline) [24,25] antifungal (miconazole) [26] and antiviral agents (tenofovir and acyclovir) [27,28]. Here we describe the development of PCL matrices, loaded with a combination of metronidazole and doxycycline hyclate.…”
