Insulin-loaded liposomes packaged in alginate hydrogels promote the oral bioavailability of insulin
Compared to subcutaneous injections, oral administration of insulin would be a preferred route of drug administration for diabetic patients. For oral delivery, both liposomes and alginate hydrogels face many challenges, including early burst release of the encapsulated drug and poor intestinal drug…

Atorvastatin-loaded emulsomes foam as a topical antifungal formulation
Dermal fungal infection faces many challenges, especially for immunocompromised patients. Recently, the repositioning of atorvastatin (ATO) as a promising anti-mycoses therapy is used to overcome some issues of conventional therapeutic agents such as microbial resistance. The goal of this study was…

Processing of Lipid Nanodispersions into Solid Powders by Spray Drying
Spray drying is a promising technology for drying lipid nanodispersions. These formulations can serve as carrier systems for poorly water-soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) that are loaded into the lipid matrix to improve their bioavailability. Once the API-loaded nanocarriers have…

Formulation development, optimization and characterization of Pemigatinib-loaded supersaturable…
Background
Pemigatinib is a small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor of fibroblast growth factor receptor inhibitors. The oral bioavailability of Pemigatinib is constricted due to its limited solubility at physiological pH. It is essential to develop a novel formulation of Pemigatinib to improve…

Development and characterization of amphotericin B nanoemulsion-loaded mucoadhesive gel for…
Despite being recognized as the “gold standard” for treating azole-resistant vulvovaginal candidiasis, amphotericin B (AmB), an amphoteric molecule, has not been widely used due to serious issues with solubility and permeability. In light of the aforementioned, the objective of the present study was…
